Manpower Commission and the War
Production Board.
This committee is dealing pri-
marily with the situation on the
West Coast, where large segment
of the war production machine is
concentrated, but the hearing may
well touch on the whole subject of
the relative needs of the Army and
industry for more men.
Another lawmaker, Senator Bur-
ton, Republican of Ohio, said today
that "if present draft regulations
are carefully reviewed and enforced,
there will be comparatively small
need for drafting of fathers, be-
cause our losses have been less than
were estimated" He indicated he
believed the need for calling fathers
would depend on whether the Army
retains its original manpower esti-
mates.
Here for Conferences.
Senator Reynolds said he re-
turned to the Capital week ahead
Of the reconvening date to confer
with other Senators, not only on the
Wheeler bill, but also on what, if
anything, should be done on the
Austin n-Wadsworth national service
bill, which would permit the as
signment of men and women to es-
sential jobs.
I'VE don't want to interfere with
the progress of the war" said Sem
ator Reynolds. "On the contrary, We
want to do everything to bring it to
speedy conclusion. But in view of
what has happened during the re-
cess, 1t would be well to have some
high ranking military officers. Sc

Reynolds Asks Review
OF Manpower Needs
In Armed Forces
Bx ]. A. OLEARY.

The trend of the war since Con-
eress recessed nine weeks ago, in
cluding the taking of Sicily and the
fall of Italy, makes it advisable
to review the estimated manpower
needs of the armed forces. Chairman
Reynolds of the Senate Military
Affairs Committee, said today,
Although the committee already
has reported out the Wheeler bill to
postpone the induction of pre-Pearl
Harbor fathers until January /, Sem
ator Reynolds said 1t is possible the
committee may consider asking the
Senate to return the measure while
manpower needs-both military and
civilian-are being restudied. He
did not say he would take the lead
