In response to requests from beet

Murray appealed to the war produc-

turer of beet leaders. He has been
advised by the farm machinery and
equipment division of war production
board, that this firm has been granted
their 1910 or 1941 output, whichever
was higher. The average allowance
for machinery of this type established
by the war production board was 20@o

The advance in grain markets which

for corn were set by an OPA order
Bonafide commercial demand kept UP
in good manner for both wheat and
the feed grains but speculative in

of wheat while an active demand con
tinued for all of the feed grains both
at interior feeding points and for ship

loan increased about 100000 bushels
and was reported at 500, 77S,OOO bush

lined in the following release from
the state selective service headquart-
ers:
After man has been indicted into
military service he passes into mill
tary control and questions concerning
his retention in or separation from
active service are responsibilities of
the war department. All final deter
limitations must be made by the mill

war department that such determine

facts presented and in the best in

Men may be separated from the

the war department that he:
a. has dependents who would be
forced to undergo hardship as a
result of his retention in the

|DEFERMENT
PROCEDURES
OUTLINED

Procedures to follow in requesting
deferment of farm and ranch workers
and in asking for reclassifications
for key men on ranches have been
issued by the state selective service
headquarters and are printed below
| in full:
1. The national selective service
headquarters recognizes that a serious
shortage of necessary ranch and
range labor and management now ex-
lists
2. Necessary authority is available
under present selective service regu-
lations to enable ranch operators to
secure deferments or reclassifications
of essential men,
3. 1t is recognized that in some in
stances both livestock operators and
labor have failed to make known to
the proper authorities the actual nee
essity for maintaining adequate exper-
fenced crews to guarantee production
to meet national requirements during
this emergency.
4. 1t is the patriotic duty of en-
ployers and employees alike to make
known to selective service authorities
the status of each man on ranch units
who is in draft classification.
5. Procedure in cases of men deem
ed necessary to agriculture and live
stock operations is as follows:
(1) The employer or registrant con-
facts the local board having juris-
diction and files completed Form

COMM. PROTESTS
INDICTMENT OF
SENATOR N0WAK

Five national officers of the Amer
lean Committee for Protection of For
eign Born have jointly voiced theil
criticism and opposition to the de
partment of justice indictment Of
Michigan State Senator Stanley No
wax, it was made public by Abnei
Green, committee secretary.
Senator Nowak has served as a ma
tional vice chairman of the American
Committee for Protection of Foreign
Born during 1941 and 1912 and the
five national officers signing the
statement have served with him both
years. The five are: Hugh DeLacy
of Seattle, Wash, national chairman;
vice chairmen Pearl M. Hart of Chi
cago; Edward Lamb of Toledo, o.,
executive vice president of the Ma
tional Lawyers Guild; DR.. Arthur Up
ham Pope, chairman of the Commit
tee on National Morale; and DR.. Max
Yergan, president of the National Ne
gro Congress.
The Joint statement was contained
In a pledge of support sent to the
Senator Stanley Nowak Defense Com
mittee in Detroit. Officers of the De-
Tense Committee include Congress
man George Sadowski Of Michigan,
honorary chairman; George F. Adde'S,
secretary-treasurer of the UAWCIO.
chairman; and DIR. W. Il. Osowski
president of the Michigan Slav Con-
gress, secretary. aA
The joint statement sharply criti-
cized the Justice department action
against Senator Nowak as 'flimsy and
Americas united war
effort. Senator Nowak's Indictment
on the allegation that, at the time he
became citizen in 1887, he was
member of the Communist party is in
complete violation of the democratic
for which this war is being
fought. We who have served with
Senator Nowak as officers of the
American Committee for Protection
Of Foreign Born for the past two
years are deeply aware of the out
standing contribution he has made to-
ward maintaining and defending the
democratic principles of his adopted
and We pledge our utmost in an
effort to convince our President that
he indictment against Senator Nowak
must be withdrawn"

No measures considered controver-

are rumors from quite reliable sources
that a bill amending the present pri-

as the charges against Cne
Marion, Indiana plant of the
same company, filed early las
month.
The principal charge is that the
company installed special equipment
to circumvent government tests about
November 1910. This equipment con
sisted of transformers which were
fixed to reduce voltage to as little as
20 per cent of the government speci-
fications and vacuum tube arrange.
ment to checkmate the insulation re-
sistance test.
Later, the Indictment charges, the
company ceased using the transform
ers and vacuum tubes and merely
shifted labels from inspected and ap-
proved wire to wire that had not
been tested. Also it is charged that
employees were instructed to repair
only every fourth defect showing in
the tests and operators of machines
which showed a red light when i'm
perfect wires passed through, were
told to cut the light off.
In addition to the company itself,
five individuals were named as de-
PENDANTS in the Indictment They
were: William H. Morley, New York,
assistant general manager Of all Ana
conda mills; Jacob Eagleson, plant
manager; Lowell K. Morrow, chief
inspector; William Eagleson, super
visor in the electrical test room and
Robert L. Wright, electrical engineer
who resigned from his job in June
of last year.
The indictments of both of the Ana
conda plants resulted from findings
made in Investigations by the war
frauds unit of the justice department,
and it is stated that Investigations
are under way in other Anaconda
plants at the present time.
A wave of resentment against the
company in the public mind is becom-
ing evident. Public opinion finds it
hard to be tolerant toward company
which apparently deliberately sold de-
fective materials to the armed forces
our own and our allies. Even
though the wire never were used in
actual combat, the lives of seamen
are endangered in the carrying of
cargoes of such material as much as
by carrying the best materials and
drastic punishment of all guilty par
ties would meet with popular APP
proval.

Sen. MURRAY
ASKS RELIEF
FOR GOLD MINERS

WASHINGTON. = Sen. James e
Murray has introduced bill for the
relief and protection of gold mines
closed down by the war production
board closing order. A similar bill
was introduced at the last session of
congress but was lost in the legisla-
tive jam during the closing days.
Senator Murray's new measure per-
mits the owner or operator of gold
mines closed down by the WPB order
to petition the court for relief, where
his ability to make payments on real
or personal property contracts has
been impaired. 1t also directs the
RFC to make loans to maintain the
property and equipment of closed
mines so that the mines will be in
condition for operation after the war.
The bill also provides total suspen-
sion of assessment work for the dur
alton.
"The gold mining industry of the
country must be protected as the
operation of these mines when peace
comes will be essential to postwar
economy" the senator said. "They
must not be allowed to deteriorate, be
flooded or cave in. Many mine opera
tors are without funds to continue
payments of their contracts and they
stand to lose valuable equities be-
cause of the closing order. l opposed
it in the first place as it has com
pletely failed to increase the supply
of manpower for mines producing
metals. The mining indus
try of the west must be protected"

LABOR LAWS
SUSPENSION
IS OPPOSED

The war, navy and labor depart.
ments, war production board, war
manpower commission, maritime com
mission and office of defense trans
portation advised against blanket sus-
pension of state labor laws.
Because Of the effective use Of pow
er to grant variations to meet war
emergencies they reported that state
labor standards on hours and working
conditions have not interfered with
war production since the war, navy
and labor departments recommended
on January 81, 1912, that state labor
laws and regulations should be pre-
served unless there was a definite
showing of emergency needs.
The seven federal agencies in a
statement prepared for state labor
commissioners pointed out that, I'M
der this approved policy, temporary
modification of certain labor stand
ards has been permitted under proper
safeguards and at the same time
maximum long time production has
been aided by preserving laws regulat-
ing hours of work and establishing
safe working conditions.
The statement, which was signed
by James P. Mitchell, director of civ
ilian personnel, services of supply,
war department, Assistant Secretary
of Navy Ralph Bard; Secretary of
Labor RANGES Perkins; War Produc-
ton Board Chairman Donald M. Mel
