'":'wtt* ~ WASHINGTON
f%n


Washington, D. c. - With the
advent of meat rationing, it is
hoped here that a more orderly
process of feeding the nation will
result and that boarding, black
market sales and other disrupting
activities will be curbed. How
ever, it is admitted that the job
of enforcing OPA regulations re-
garding food is an unwieldy and
gigantic task and there is no ques-
ton but that there can be hard
ships in parts of the United
States this year unless violators
are controlled with a strong hand.
The whole government food
program, which provides for
furnishing sufficient food to all
civilians in this country in addi-
ton to feeding our armed forces
and aiding the food problem of
our Allies, is contingent for its
success on the proper working of
a controlled distribution system
and on the attainment of high
production goals set for farmers.
If the distribution plan falls
down, or if the farmers cannot
reach their goals, the nations di-
ct is apt to drop below the re-
quirements for good health.
It is believed here that the
greatest immediate danger is on
the farm production 'front.' since
farmers who are short of help. of
machines and fertilizer are being
called upon to produce record
CROPS. The Bankhead bill. which
calls for deferment of all farm
workers from the draft. will help
keep the farm labor situation
from getting worse, but other
constructive moves to get more
men on farms must be taken at
once. If necessary, the army will
be called upon to help farmers,
but it is realized that. with the
planting season at hand. farmers
must know RIGHT now that thew
are going to be supplied with
sufficient help or some of them
will be unwilling to plant crops
which they might never be able
to harvest.
The Skyland post. [volume] (West Jefferson, N.C.) 193?-1988, 1943-04-01

One way to solve the farm la
Dor situation and also end labor
shortages in production would be
to pass a compulsory service act
which would give the government
the power to draft all men and
women for necessary work. A
bill to make this possible has been
introduced, known as the Austin
Wadsworth bill, but it is unlike
ly that it will passed for some
time. The President has said
that he does not want workers
drafted if it can possibly be
avoided, and he has indicated
that he does not think it is nee
essary Immediately.
Action to freeze essential work
ers in their jobs is more likely.
This would make it impossible
for farm workers to seek more
lucrative jobs in industry. 1t al
so seems likely that legislation
may be written to freeze union
wages and thus end the fast
spreading demands for new wage
increases which are being made
by the American Federation of
! Labor, the CLIO and the mine
workers under John L. Lewis.
There is no doubt that congress
is alarmed over the assaults upon
the present wage structure being
made by the unions and is in no
mood to permit the granting of
the increases which are being de-
manded. If the administration
permits the coal miners the So
per day increase they are seek
ing, congress will be deluged with
legislation to clamp down on la
Dor. It is also likely that control
legislation setting wages for the
duration of the war will be put
through if the National War La
Dor board gives in to the demands
for the scrapping of its Little
Steel formula under which it has
permitted cost-of-living increases
up to Is per cent above what
wages were at the beginning of
1941.
