U. S. Employment Service off,
Gals. who have been trying to re-
cruit civilian defense workers Tor
full or part-time jobs in war plants
are red-faced about an experience
at USES regional headquarters III
Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
A young lady in the Milwaukee
office who was contracting a list
of OCD workers by phone finally
reached a woman whom we will call
Mrs. Smith, and suggested that she
take an industrial job in the Mil
waukee area.
I'm sorry, but my husband won't
let me work" was the reply
do you mind giving us the bust
ness address of your husband?" re-
ouested the Employment Service
caller. Maybe we can induce him
to change his mind"
You ought to know my husband,
because he works right in your
office" the OCD worker responded,
hesitantly. His name is John
Smith"
An investigation revealed that
not only was there John Smith y
in the Milwaukee USES offices
but that several other men in the
same office also were preventing
their wives from taking war plant
jobs.
Note:-Afraid that the same thing
might be happening elsewhere the
USES has sent out blanket orders
to regional officials to begin the
recruiting of women volunteer wal
workers from the families of then
own staffs.

FDR's PURGE

One by one, it looks as if the
Democratic Senators whom the
President sought to purge in 1888
are facing tough fights in the pri-
maIies, this time not of Roosevelt's
making. Senator Cotton Ed" Smith
of South Carolina faces a reyital-
lied, popular Governor Olin john
ston. Newly married Senator Bob
Reynolds of North Carolina will
not run. Washington is especially
watching Senator Bennett Champ
Clark of Missouri, who faces the
toughest fight of his political life.
Clark, son of the late famous
Speaker of the House, is being OPP
posed in the Democratic primaries
by Roy McKittrick, Missouri's dy-
manic attorney general.

Warlick Stirs
Speculation
In the Sir Waiter Hotel.
Daily Dispatch Bureau,
By LYNN NISRET

Raleigh, April l3-Judge Wilson
Warlck's informal announcement
that he will be a candidate for
governor next year has many poll
,ically-minded folks guessing. One
confusing point is the difference be-
tween such Il pusitivev statement as
the judge issued and Il formal" an
nouncemeIt. He says he will GER
,ainly be in the race but will not
announce until later.
Question is: what's left to an
nouncc. except his personal plat
.Orm?
As the record stands now. Warli.i;
is the only candidate. Gregg Cherry
has intimated in various utteran,cs
public. scmi-public and private
that he is a candidate. but he has
never said in SO many words that
he is. Ralph Mcdonald has many
times said. without ever giving per
mission To newspapers TO quote di-
rectly, that he will be in the RUNNING
Either of them can get out witho;I,
having To retract anything: Warlick
cant. Either Cherry or Mcdonald
could switch In Il senatorial race on.
retire 10 privacy without loss Of
face: Warlick has got to follow
through for governor or Just back
out.
There has been much Newspaper
comment on the surprise element Il,
Warlick's announcement. So far a.
this reporter can ascertain. chief sur
prise was nj its definitencSs. il being
one of the earliest such absolute
commitments in many years. There
is no out" left him except The hr,!;
door. Some of those who know him
well say that is typical; that he plays
the game on the basis of "visorouS
offensive is the best defense"
Meantime. many wiseacros had
gotten out on n limb. Assuming
that the subcrnatorial race " uuld be
two-:lded issue between Cherry
and Mcdonald. numerous commit
mentS have already been made -
one or the other. Full impact Of tho
Warlick c?1didacv has not been fci,
over the state. Until popular reac.
ton is appraised there will be little
political talk among the State en-,

His voice was not familiar. Ger

A second voice spoke up in a
monotone. Agatha was confused
for moment. until she recognized
ii as short-wavc radio. The driver
had stopped not only TO eat his
breakfast. but to listen more easily
to the police calls. The announcer
was giving routine orders 10 his
