At the start Of this amicable

ever, one lively tiff between jim
Drury Of the Maritime Union and
Senator Millard Tydings flared up
and as quickly died down under
the soothing craftsmanship of Sen

Building with all of the Maryland
congressional delegation. the
CIOers started discussing the

Tydings choose this opportunity
to tell the boys off. He made broad
assertions about racketeering in

for proof, he was able to remem-

was hot and heavy for a moment
until the meeting was brought to
order by Radcliffe.

now been freed for distribution

war boards.
More Frozen Foods For '43
Expanded facilities for producing
quick frozen foods are expected to
bring total frozen vegetable pro-
duction to over 200 million pounds
in 1943 The increase in output
will be primarily for the purpose
of meeting expanding requirements
Of the armed forces. Approximate
ly 80 per cent of the production in
crease, however, will be available
to civilian consumers and will give
them a total of about 1S0 million
pounds 20 per cent more
than in 1912.
Restrictions On Seed Potatoes
Seed potatoes cannot be sold by
retail stores for any purpose other
than planting, OPA has announced.
OPA has also ruled that seed pota-
toes must be tagged as such in
sales at retail and cannot be sold
by retailers in quantities of less
than so pounds. Similar steps
were taken by OPA, March IS, 43,
at the country shipper and other
distributor levels. The amendment
became effective March 25, and is
expected to help curb the potato
black markets.

FEW WORKERS CHANGE
TO ESSENTIAL JOBS HERE

Comparatively few men, now
employed in non-essential industry
applied for transfers to essential
industry before the dead-line on
Wednesday, according to the Unit
ed States Employment Service.
Reason given by the employment
officials is that large proportion
of the industries here are already
engaged in war production and as
a result the greater proportion of
local labor are in these plants.
Those who failed to indicate their
desire to make the change or who
failed to obtain employment in es-
sential industries, will, in all prob
ability, be reclassified by the local
draft boards.

nOunced procedures by which sol
diers, as individuals, may obtain
discharges from the army to re-
turn TO their farms. Soldiers on
active duty in the Continental u.
S., who are 50 years of age and
over, may be discharged upon ia
vOrable consideration of written
applications submitted prior to
May |, 1943. These requests must
be submitted by a letter or state
ment from local farm agents to
the effect that the soldiers will be
employed in essential agricultural
activities if discharged from the
Army. Such requests are made by
the soldier to his immediate COM
manding officer. A soldier meeting
these requirements will be dis
charged promptly unless his re-
lease will seriously affect the eff
cheney of his unit.
Drive Against Black Markets
A total of 7S3 court actions
against 1,025 individual defendants
have been begun in the first two
months of OPA's intensive drive
to stamp out black markets in
meat. Of the total, 149 were Grim
inal actions against 246 defendants
and 634 were civil actions against
779 defendants. They charge
wholesalers, packers and retailers
with delivering meat for civilian
use in excess of permitted quotas
or selling it at higher than ceiling
prices, or both.

HANGOVERS
By
LITTLE HEISKELL

After many months of inactiv-
ity, the Street Department bust
ed out with the Blue Birds this
week, and went to work on the
streets. AS result, citizens
and taxpayers are again in the
hopeful mood and looking for
ward to more action this sum-
mer. Being a critic of the b'hoys
at the Wailing Wall when they
neglect their obligation to the
citizens and lapse into uncon-
sciousness, must, on the other
hand, compliment them when
they show signs of life. Their
decision to get down to business
and clean up and rebuild the
city's streets, rates round of
applause.

The most serious problem con-
fronting industrial Hagerstown
is the large number of men be-
ing inducted into the service,
but nothing can be done about
it. That being the case, the
smart thing for the employer
to do is to start getting his
house in order NOW by training
the female of the species. If
inside reports regarding the
number to be inducted from this
county this year is correct, the
employers are due for the worst
headache since Jonathan Hager
began clearing out this wilder
ness.
This and That: A good bet is
that before the year is out, the
entire State of Maryland will be
operating under the Iabor-man-
agement agreement. Baseball
fans (those who are Ieft!) are
eagerly looking forward to the
opening of the Interstate League.

surplus and shortage of labor
in this area shortage of
skilled and semi-skiIied workers

workers (unskiIIed) to meet in
