WASHINGTON went up to
Wv the Senate Press Gallery the
other day to get my pants pressed,
and, while l was waiting, fellow
came into the visitors gallery and
began handing out sheets of paper
to the spectators.
What is that man doing?" I
asked Col. Harold Beckley, Press
Gallery Superintendent, do you
suppose he has busted into this here
august chamber with handouts adj
vertising Joe's New Chill Parlor?"
"He is distributing diagrams Of
the Senate" said Col. Beckley.
They are very helpful. A visitor
can check with the diagram and
thereby identify the various sena-
tors"
You mean" ] said that you
can't tell a senator without pro-
gram"
You might possibly recognize
some from their pictures in the
newspapers. said Col. Beckley, but
this is not sure fire. A senator often
looks different in newspaper than
he does in real life. am not saying
which way he looks best because,
after all, do net yearn to go back
In a hurry to private enterprise"
These diagrams provide some IL
Illuminating sidelights. For instance,
it seems that neither political party
trusts the vice president of the
United States too far, because-at
all times there is seated on either
side of him the secretary of the ma
Jority and the secretary of the
minority
The holder of seat No. on the
diagram is Senator c. Maryland
Brooks. Of Illinois. q Republican.
The last seat, No. 90. is held by Sem
ator John l.. Mcclellan, Of Arkan-
sas, a Democrat.
The seating plan, however. car
RES no significance. Senator Brooks
is not considered 95 points better
than Senator Mcclellan - except,
possibly. by Senator Brooks.
Nor is any superstition involved.
Senator Robert F. Wagner, of New
York, sits calmly in No. Is without
worrying about black cats or other
jinxes.

of the manpower and food short

raised to l6 units.
1T is now believed" 'kt state
ment said, that the deferment OF
any registrant who produces less
than 16 war units minimum each
year is unjustified.
1t emphasized however, that this
was not a rigid rule and that the
nature of crops raised and regis
trant's age, health, or any other
compelling circumstance" should pe
considered.
The new policy was expected to
result in close scrutiny of defer
ments of over 100000 non-fathers
in the 11-C and 111-C classifica-
tions, 100000 of whom are under
20 years of age. Selective service last
month ordered drastic restrictions
on industrial deferments of men
13to % years of age.
It will abolish the 111-C class
ification of about 100000 men, who
will be transferred into class 11-C
if they meet the new 16-unit stand {.
ard.
Local boards were directed to re-
open first, according to order num-
