1t was emphasized that a state
ment of availability could not be
issued solely on the ground that
mans wages were substantially less
than those prevailing in his locality
for similar work.

The figure was set at 80 days, Mr..
McNutt explained. ito prevent work.
ers from leaving essential activities.
working for few days in nom
essential activities and then moving
back to essential work at a higher
wage
Later, however. it appeared that
the 30-day interval could be con-
sidered in different way.
Case Is Cited.
Mr.. McNutt was asked what would
happen to a man in an essential
activity who sought to transfer from
one city with low-wage scale for
his work to another city with a
higher wage scale, both cities not
being covered by stabilization plans.
In answer, Mr.. McNutt, assisted
by members of his staff, replied that
the man could appeal his case, 60
to work in an inferior position or
wait 80 days.
In a statement before reporters
started bombarding him with ques-
tions, Mr.. McNutt said the regula-
tions were "a sincere attempt on
my part" to fulfill the Presidents
order of April 8.
The reason, he said. that move
ment from non-essential to essen
tial activities was not being re-
stricted was because this Is In the
interest of the war effort and should
be encouraged"
While transfers from essential to
non essential activities are not de-
sirable, he said, they are not pro-
hibited at equal pay"
He termed the movement of
workers from one essential activity
to another "one Of the most serious
and wasteful forms of labor turn
over that is now prevalent"
Transfer Motive Removed.
He said it was hoped that the
motive for transfer" was removed
when employers were forbidden to
offer higher pay.
The provision in the order which
specified that the information In A
Statement of availability" must be
confined to what was required by
the regulation, he explained, was to
protect employees against prejudi-
cial information that has no bear
ing on the case"
The provision declaring that
nothing in the regulation shall be
construed to affect existing employee
employer agreements, Mr.. McNutt
said, had been inserted to protect
seniority rights"
He also explained that the reason

added that he didn't think that
any one who really looks at this
will be resentful."
The regulations, he said, would
be modified If appeals from the reg
ulations indicated some problems
we hadn't anticipated"
Asked how employers would know
the past history Of the employe to
determine whether or not the pro-
spective employe had been in essen
tial or non-essential work, he re-
sponded that in 9S per cent of the
cases employers had that informa-
ton and they could always check
up through the mans Social Secur-
ity file.
In answer to all questions point
ing out possible loopholes in the reg
ulations as well as in their enforce
ment, Mr.. McNutt responded, I'VE
think they will be accepted in good
faith"
Freedom Not Surrendered.
Doesn't this mean that a man
who goes from a non essential to an
essential activity gives up his free
dom?" asked q reporter.
Mr.. McNutt said he didn't think
so.
Asked how the regulations were
affected II a mans salary was raised
soon after he transferred from one
essential activity to another, Mr.
McNutt responded that that was up
to the War Labor Board.
When 1t was suggested that man
who stayed out OF essential ac-
tivitles could make a better deal,
Mr.. McNutt said that so far the
main competition had been be-
tween one essential employer and
another but IT the movement be-
tween non-essential jobs becomes
general, we will have to include non-
essential workers in the regula-
tions."
Mr.. McNutt was accompanied to
the press conference by most of his
staff, several of whom we're called
in to answer each question posed by
the reporters.
It was brought out that the VINO

ganized for closer cooperation with
the War Manpower Commission, had
considered but had not approved the
