In 4 work stoppage which started
last wednesday at the Birmingham
Tank Co.. and the Ingalls, Iron
Works Co. of Birmingham. How
ever, these employees returned to
work yesterday before local boards
began action, and Gen. Smith said
reclassification would not then apply
to them.
I'VE simply plan to reclassify
workers who cease to perform a
job for which they have been de-
ferred," he said. He added that his
reclassification order originally con-
corning the Birmingham workers,
would apply Ito all future strikes In
Alabama war plants"
The order on the Birmingham
work stoppage was telegraphed by
State Selective Service headquarters
at Montgomery yesterday and made
public today.
It directed local boards to "*
take the necessary action to imme-
diataely reclassify all resistrants
who are engagead in strike at the

Iron Works, and who have ceased
to perform the Job for which they
were deferred"
