DRAFT OF WAR JOB
SHIRKERS is ORDERED
CONTINUED from First Page,

1t was predicted. however. that
the new order merely will direct a
more rigid application of the regu-
lations in effect. These provide that
Occupational deferred men under
3S may be drafted if they leave
jobs that qualify them for classifi-
cation in PA or 2-B.
Because military requirements
have been met largely since last
May with men under 36 years old.
few older men have been called
even though they may have turned
to peace time work.
The few occupationally deferred
registrants under 26 years have
been less inclined to leave essen
tial jobs. since draft regulations
have been invoked quickly in their
case.
In the future. Hershey said. job
shifts will be permitted only when
registrants under 3S years convince
local boards that a change lis in
the hest interest of the war eff
fort"
Think Men Will Come Back
The tighter regulations also are
expected to bring back to essential
jobs a large number of men who
have strayed from them.
AS a result. manpower officials
said. heavy labor turnover now
plaguing war industries will be re-
duced. and a good start made to-
ward increasing munitions worker
rolls by 100000.
Urgent war production programs
require 10000 of this number at
once.
Delaware State Selectaive Service
headquarters on Tuesday of this
week announced that all local draft
boards have been instructed that
the new deferment regulations
should be applied when they learn
that a man has left his deferred
for nOn-essential
work. and that he should he re-
classified for immediate induction.
Under selective service regula-
lions. draft boards will learn of
change of employment
by three methods:
/. Notification by employer that
an emnloyee has left his job.
.. Notification by registrant
that he has changed his employ
ment.
;. Expiration of deferred classi-
iication when a registrant must
make an application for an extern
sion of his deferred classification.
If registrant fails to notify his
draft board that he has changed
he is subject to prose-
,ution under selective service regu-
ations.

DELAWARE POULTRYMEN

DELAWARE POULTRYMEN -
buyers, growers and professors
were brought together last Friday
in the office of Governor Bacon. at
Dover, where they discussed at
length the problems confronting
them by reason of the government
freeze order. Representatives of
the o. P. A., the War Food Admin
istration and the Army attended.
AS a result of this conference,
which was attended by members of
the press, many of the difficulties
involved have probably been ironed
out. 1t would seem that the larg-
est and most severe criticism of
the order on the part of the grow
ers, was the manner in which the
freeze order was wOrded. The
poultrymen feel that the action
was taken against the Delmarva
growers largely because of the
"black market" in poultry. This
they resented. Explanations by
Army officers that no such con-
dition necessitated the order but
that rather the known fine process
ing facilities in Delaware was
largely responsible, aided in
smoothing out this resentment. A
free discussion by all interested
parties certainly clarified the air,
and made progress in an approach
