Washington, Wyoming and Alaska. This number includes both officers and enlisted personnel for the two services, in which thousands of wo- men are being recruited in order to release men for sea duty.
 At least 25,000 volunteers are needed by the WAVES and STARS this year, according to directives re- ceived at the Thirteenth Naval Dis trict Procurement Office from the Navy Department. The expansion of the program, officials indicated, is the result of the highly successful replacement of men with women which already has taken place in numerous naval establishments.
 Among the various specialist rat ings for which women may train are aviation machinists mates, yeo- men, electricians mates, parachute riggers, photographers and radio men.
 A recent modification of educa- tional requirements for women ap- plying for the two Womens ser vices now makes it possible for women with only two years of high school or business school education to enlist. Women at least 20 years of age and under 36 years are eli- gible for ratings For prospective officers. the age limits are from 20 to 49 years inclusive.
 Marriage regulations also have been modified with the result that WAVES and STARS now may mar " men in any branch of the armed services except their own. Married women may enlist if they are not married to men in their own branch of the services

CT has been better example of the difference between Broadway Holly wood and Washington. Glare Boothe Luce, Broadway playwright and Hollywood scenarist, played the old moom picture trick of ducking the press. That's something Washing ton newsmen and women don't com prehend, understand, or quien sabe.
 President Roosevelt does it oc- oasionally. With him, it's sort of 8 game, but he always makes up for it with a front page story. That secret of winning forgive ness has been employed by more political bigwigs than the Capitol Dome could find seats for.
 Evidently Care Boothe Luce got an inkling overnight of this Wash ington secret. Her press conference the next day wasn't page one, but after bit of hemming- having and parrying some fingernail work from the feminine contingent, Mrs. Luce settled down to the capitol formula that freshmen congressmen (and women) should be seen and not heard.
 As one of the more objective re- porters put it: Mrs. Luce side stepped comment on major political issues until she. had a chance to look into them, but in all. put up a good defense and acquitted her self well. She said she would abide by the rules of the House on con- mittees tshe had been asked if she would try for the Foreign Relations committed and would make her first maiden speech when she had something to say
 That's something more like Con- gressional freshman.
 The Congresswoman from Con necticut seems to have gone a long way toward recovering her first misstep.
 Freshman Congress m m b r whose first press conference is a of "a Vassar home- coming weekend, the powder-room scene from The Women" and mov- ing day on the third floor back rarely recover so quickly.

The British reported that at least

BY JAMES BIRCHFIELD,

Prince Georges County farmers,
despite a labor shortage which
threatens to curtail crop produc-
ton by as much as Is per cent, are
facing the spring planting season
with plans to come as near main
tanning maximum production as
possible.
In a county largely devoted to
the raising of beef cattle, tobacco
and vegetables, farmers agree that
unless help comes by harvest time
large quantities of vegetables which
otherwise would find their way to
Washington tables will lie rotting
in the fields.
Ore farmer said in past years he
had been able to fill his truck with
women and children from nearby
areas to help harvest his beans and
berries. That is no longer possible,
he added
Women Now Working.
Women who once could be count
ed on to help in the vegetable
patches during harvest time are
either in war industries or are being
kept at home to look after their
children as well as the children of
others who are working, and bows
and girls who once helped in the
fields are no longer available.
j. Clagett Sweeney, chairman Of
the County AAA Committee, said
that farmers signing up for the war
production program indicated their
desire to maintain farm production
on high level, but doubted this
could be done without more labor
or labor saving machinery.
He said the county now faces a
IS per cent reduction in farm pro-
duction and added that the reduc-
ton in crops may go as high as %
per cent if labor conditions become
any worse than they are at present.
CIamor fo- Machinery.
Mr.. Sweeney said that Prince
Georges County farmers are clamor-
ing for machinery, which would
allow them to take up the labor
slack.

Fourteen tractors allotted the
county have been taken, he said,
and there were Is requests for the
county's quota OF four tractor cult
vators. There We're II requests for
the one fertilizer distributor and a
number Of requests for combines
none Of which were available, he
said.
Mr.. Sweeney said farmers were
planning their operations as much
as possible this year to include
crops which will take a minimum OF
labor. Thus, while fewer food crops
may be raised, little land is likely
to be taken out Of cultivation.
A. S. Aist, who farms 50 acres
near Cheltenham, said it is up to

possible during the war emergency.

and we've got to produce if we are
going to win"
Mr.. Aist, hard hit by labor short
age, said he plannedsto cultivate
every acre" of his land, but would
plant crops that he is reasonably
sure can be cultivated and harvest
ed without depending on outside
help.
He said he would plant a few
/ acres In tobacco and the rest of his
land in soybeans. potatoes, sweet
| corn and vegetables. He explained
that he may need some help in
| harvesting the vegetables, but could
manage the cultivation and other
work alone
Formerly in the retail dairy bust
ness with his brother, A. G. Aist,
he sold his half of a herd of Sc
Guernsey cows when it became i'm
possible to replace tires on trucks
used for house to-houSe deliveries.
His brother, however, still operates

borhood stores.
Mr.. Aist said most of his herd of
Is cows was purchased by Mont
gomery County dairymen. His
brother bought five cows, and few
went to Amish buyers in St. Marys
County, he said.
Farmers reported that beef cattle
were on the increase in the county.
