Deputy Chairman Of VINO
Tells Of Coming
Difficulties

DETROIT, April 15.-The Unit
ed States has possible labor force
of IS million, Fowler Harper, De-
putty Chairman of the War Man
power Commission told members of
the American Chemical Society
here last night, basing his estimate
On the nations 100 million people,
He said we must permit people
to work as close to home as possible,
cease our dislike for employing
women and Negroes, abandon age
limits, stop labor pirating and la
Dor boarding, job shopping and alb
senteeism.
BY the end of the year, he said,
100000 additional workers will be
taken for military service, while
essential industries will require an
additional 100000. He forecast
that 100000 housewives, mbstly
without children, will have to enter
industries, along with 2,500,000
handicapped persons for limited
work, million from the retired
list, and physically handicapped
persons and youths.
But with all of these we will
still have deficit of 100000 work
ers Harper said, and these we can
obtain only by shifting people
from jobs less important in time of
war than in peace"
