FOUR GROUPS AFFECTED

The plants workers were split
Into four groups, according 10 J. +
Maloney. general manager Of the
EcorSe plant. There were produc.
i tion workers, non-production work
'erS identified with a specific de.
partment. non-production workers
mot so identified. and a last grouy
whose members included TRUCK
drivers, tool and die men. Others
mainly in The high pay brackets
and maintenance men.
Basic time standards were set
up with an is per cent leeway-
and these are not changed as long
as the job continues or the method
remains unchanged. If a depart
ment's production goes 10 per cent
over the base. a 10 per cent pay
increase Is the reward.
DOUBLE INCENTIVE
Jerry drivers, crane men. and
stock handlers receive incentive
pay amounting 10 half the depart
mentS showing above normal. plus
half the plants average above
normal showing.
INSIDE truck men. packers. ship
pers and stock yard workmen and
Others who help the output of the

can increase output only by JOINT
effort. Here the company and the

Is Detroit one of the two hot

black market meat?
No less an authority than the
Cleveland Federal Reserve Bank
says il is.
OPA officials here are inclined
10 bellttle the idea that extensive
black market operations are being
carried on in this area.
The facts. however, would seem
10 indicate that if Mr.. and Mrs.
Detroit are getting anywhere near
a normal supply of meat, it's not
coming through normal channels.

WHILE THERE is NO DISPOSE
ton on the part of the American
people to appear miserly or over
conservative in an all-out war eff
fort. many hard-hit tax payers will
be glad to know that the 18th Con-
gress will soon be investigating
government spending not only for
the support of nOn-essential activi-
ties but for war activities as we'll.
President Roosevelt has put up to
Congress the job of deciding which
activities of the government are
essential and which should be
eliminated or cut down.
Believing that the time has ar
rived to go much further than the
elimination of unnecessary activi-
ties by shaking down some of the
war agencies to see if economies
could be made in that field. Senator
Taft recently made the following
statements:
The War Production Board has
10000 employees and probably
could do a much more efficient job
if it were reorganized and had
about 5000 fewer workers.
Similarly, the Office of Price
Administration has about 10000
employees and it is likely that lot
of them are falling over each
others feet.
ITS up to Congress now," the
Senator from Ohio continued. mot
only to limit non-war expenditures
but to see to it that war eXpendi-
tures are made efficiently"
MI Taft said he thought that one
of the greatest sources of wasteful-
ness lay in the duplication of eff
forts of various government bu-
reaus. He had been told, he said,
that five government agencies were
carrying on similar programs in
many Latin-American nations.

Asked
To Clear Draft Status
OF District Police
Mcmillan Says Action
Would Be Answer to
Aliens Charges in House

1ncensed at unfair statements
made in the House on two recent
occasions that there are too many
men of draft age on the Washington
police force, leading the public to
consider them draft dodgers" ;"
Chairman Mcmillan of the House
District Subcommittee on Police and
Flremen today asked the Commits
sioners to do justice to these pa
triotic young men"
Mr.. Mcmillan said the Commits
sioners should either release these
"maligned" young men so that they
could enter the armed forces, "as
many of them have been eager to
do, or declare their present employ
ment essential to the war effort and
their service as policemen in the
War Capital patriotic. 20, 90. ..
He said he knew many of them
have been trying to obtain releases
to enter the fighting forces. At the
same time, Mr.. Mcmillan pointed out
that these trained men are needed
here and should not be taken into
the Army or Navy and then placed
on military police duty in some other
city.
This action by Chairman McMil-
Ian was prompted by speeches made
in the House by Representative AL
len, Democrat, of Louisiana, when
the District appropriation bill, car
rylng funds for 125 additional Met
ropolitan policemen, was under con-
sideration, and again on Wednesday.
After his first speech on the sub
ject in the House I personally ex-
planned to Representative Allen that
his remarks were unwarranted and
unjust. I regret very much that he
saw fit to renew those charges" Mr..
Mcmillan said.
