NOW WE'RE SHORT OF
UNSKILLED LABOR

ONCE of Defense Transportation
officials In charge Of bus transporta-
ton now say that the shortage OF
manpower is having more effect, IN
curtailing operations than the
shortages of gasoline and rubber.
Difficulty in getting bus drivers Is
just fourth of the problem. Find
ing competent mechanics to keep
the aging equipment in operation is
equally as difficult and finding I'M
skilled workers to service the buses
Is a problem as big as both skilled
labor requirements combined.
WPB boss Donald M. Nelson was
explaining at press conference the
difficulties of scheduling the pro-
duction parts for airplaneS, ships,
tanks, pipelines, refineries and
buildings. He cited as examples,
of parts that had to be scheduled
for all these uses, valves, measuring
instruments and heat exchanger.

Mortgages on hundreds Of college

may be paid Off at government ex-
pense as one unexpected result OF
the Army Navy program OF special
lied education for uniformed per-
sonnet. There are Greek letter fra
ternities In only 1876 Of the 100
U. 8. colleges, and practically all OF
the fraternity houses may be taken
over for use as dor1nitories for the
student soldiers and sailors.
The services will make prime con-
tracts with the colleges for dorrni-
tory facilities, paying the colleges at
the rate Of approximately $3.50 per
bed per year. Most of this money
will be passed on to the fraternities
as ub-contractors, and In addition
the armed services will pay costs OF
heating, light and water.
If fraternity house has a dor
mitory capacity of so beds, that will
mean that the fraternity will get up
to $4,000 a year, and since there
is no upkeep, all this money can
be applied to reducing the mort
gage.
HORRIBLE EXAMPLE: '.,
Government officials interested in

So short is the meat supply that
fashioned rustling Of livestock

faced with a formidable black mar
ket. a..,,
A senatorial investigating COM

Mexico, on the island now, will re-

Acuteness Of metal shortage Is
indicated by two recent Washington
orders. One, issued by WPB, reduce

the Army, replacing metal buttons
on soldiers uniforms with nodded
plastic, will save only $50 tons Of
brass, but that too Is considered i'm
