laundries Ask VINO
For Classification as
Sanitary Services
Warn Industry Faces
Collapse in Six Months
In Monpower Shortage
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Warning that the Nations laun-
dry industry faced an impending
collapse within six months, the Ma
tional Laundry and Linen Supply
Associations headed for the War
ManpoWer Commission today with
a request that they be classified as
sanitary services" or at least as
essential industries.
In a preliminary statement, the
American Institute of Laundering
and the Linen Supply Association,
which said they represented 1000
laundries and 1900 linen suppliers,
urged replacement of the present
priority system on machines and
supplies with "a fair system of allo-
cation" and asked for recruitment
Of workers through United States
Employment Service Just as they
have been recruited away from
laundries."
Their announcement said that the
National Association of Dryers and
SiSoiiOiof tilC 1soIlOIlal ldl
Launderers and the National Insti-
tute of Diaper Services would join
today in the appeal to VINO.
Without their sterilization pro-
cesses. the laundering agencies con-
tended, there would be danger of
spreading skin diseases, which they
said already had become "a primary
cause of absenteeism" in war in
dustries.
There is little hope of keeping
large portion of the Nations laun-
dries open until winter" the state
ment said, without relief in the
manpower, material and supply
situation.
Home washing, the statement
added, would use 40 per cent more
soap, fail in respect to sanitation,
increase absenteeism among women

Hoppenot, New Chief
OF Martinique, Gives
Pledge Of War Aid
: BY the Associated Press.

ky the Associated Press.
FORT-DE-FRANCE, Martinique,
July l6,-Assurance was given today
, by HenriEtienne Hoppenot, new
Governor of Martinique, that his
administration would do everything
possible to assist the United Nations
war effort.
Asked if French military and naval
forces in this area might join the
other Allies, Gov. Hoppenot said this
matter had not yet been discussed,
p although he believed all concerned
were anxious to contribute all they
could for victory.
Admiral Georges Robert, Vichy
follower who acceded to the wishes
of the United Nations and stepped
down from the Martinique post a
week ago, was forced to capitulate,
Gov. Hoppenot said, following a
revolt" of the army garrison.
The garrison, Gov. Hoppenot said
left Fort-de-France June 18, gather
ed at post on the other side of
the island, and refused to obey the
admiral.
Although Admiral Robert asked
for cooperation in several radio
: addresses, the civil population began
street demonstrations. The admiral
fed to the aircraft carrier Bearn
and the soldiers sent word they
would assist the population if naval
forces were employed in an at
tempt to halt the demonstrators.
Admiral Robert and about 10 of
his closest followers, Gov. Hoppenot
said, were being taken aboard
French vessel to San Juan, Puerto
Rico.
An agreement already has been
signed with American authorities,
Gov. Hoppenot said, providing for
importation of food, clothing and
other badly-needed commodities.
Two shiploads of food offshore were
10 begin unloading at once.
Some s40,000,00O in French gold
which was moved here when France
fell still is intact, Gov Hoppenot
said, and the French Committee of
National Liberation will assume
possession.
