FLAG OVER THE
PLOW

B. is a skilled dairyman. II 1t took
two inexperienced men to produce
the same amount of milk, what
would be gained by his induction?
! We would be out one man. The
ranch is in good hands now and If
he is indicted it will be sold.
NOT THAT KIND
We know as we'll as Mr.. B. does
that all he has to do to get into
class IA is to sell his cows and
launch himself into a life of leisure.
But we don't believe he is that
kind of fellow so we recommended
deferment against his wishes.
Mr.. C. is truck driver hauling
milk. He is single but supports his
mother. He knows his business and
is a good worker. His employer has
made an honest effort for the past
six months to replace him.
He is not IL agriculture, according
to Selective Service definitions, but
is essential to it. We recommend
ed his deferment.
inexperienced truck drivers are
sure death to scarce automotive
equipment and Selective Service
recognizes that fact
1t. Col. Kenneth Fl. Leitch, State
| Director of Selective Service, dis
cussing a recent memorandum on
movement of agricultural products
including livestock and dairy pro-
ducts, is quoted as saying,
ut will be the policy of this head
quarters to grant presidential ap-
peals where deferments are denied
by the appeal boards if such reg
istrants can qualify under this
memorandum and under activity
and occupational bulletin No.

When essential truck drivers OF
mechanics are placed in class IA
by appeal boards, the War Board
suggests that they or their employ
ers look into this matter of prcsi-
dental appeal. After all, there
would be no use in Imperial Valley
farmers staying home from the
fight to raise food if more men we're
I not kept here to haul it to where
] 1t is needed.

Officials Studying
War Plant Hirinu

WASHINGTON, Sept. 2-UP)-
Government officials seeking a solu-
ton to the near-levelling off of
aircraft production today studied
a proposal to establish controlled
hiring plan in Pacific coast states
which would give airplane plants a
top priority on available manpower.
A similar plan has been tried out
experimentally in Buffalo, N. Y,

successful.

woman that has ever crashed a
heretofore masculine domain.
