Manpower in
West Shipyards

PORTLAND, Ore, Oct. 6. (UP)-
War ManpoWer Commissioner Paul
V. McNutt disclosed that $4,000
more workers will be required for
all west coast shipyards and 1000
men for naval repair work at Pearl
Harbor, during the month of Oc-
tober, according to word received
here.
The announcement followed a
previous VINO report that $1,000
workers were provided in Septem-
Der. McNutt stressed that the
building of combat loaded cargo
ships and troop ships, as we'll as
the repair of damaged naval vessels
must be Speeded.
The manpoWer commissioner en-
phasized the urgent need for mer
to construct new combat loaded
cargo ships and troop transports,
which are replacing the previously
used landing crafts. He stated, This
is an expanding program with about
5000 more workers needed at once
and additional workers required as
the program gathers momentum
These vessels will play an important
role in impending attacks against
the Japanese-held bases. Nothing
must stand in the way of providing
these ships on schedule for oul
forces"
McNutt urged workers engaged in
less essential employment to con-
suit the local unit of the United
States employment service office
for information regarding work in
west coast shipyards.

NEW SECRETARY FACES
STIFF PROBLEMS

At home and abroad briStling prob
lens arise to vex the new Secretary OF
State The situation is not like similar
ones that the new cabinet member was
accustomed to as an industrial executive.
At the head of the table in a steel dlrec-
tors meeting the dynamic StettlnluS
could resort to the well-knoWn fist pound
ing tactics. There he had his problem
right in front of him and the persons he
had to deal with were where they got
the benefit directly of the pounding
cure.
Now it is different Messrs. Churchill
and Eden, with whom Stettinius has
crossed swords, are too far away for
that procedure. Likewise the senate is
Just too big and ramifying for the Secre-
tary to bring to terms by sheer dynam-
les. With five of his aids under scrutiny
by the senate foreign relations commit
tee and with the confirmation queries
likely to end up on the floor of the upper
house, the home problem is quite as
pressing and disturbing as the policy
rift over liberated countries in Europe.
However, a taste of the new secretary's
cabinet already has been had by Britain's
statesmen and the reaction brought forth
the criticism, quite generally in the Brit
ish press. that the secretary was rude.
There is no evidence that the senate
will turn down any of the under-secretar-
les. but the move to give all five the once
over does indicate that serious thought
is being given the state departments
set-up for the next four years, and this
is entirely pertinent.
What action this nation takes, the poll
cies it assumes toward the world as it
emerges from the throes of war which
never should have been fought, are the
peoples business as never before. 1t is
not so much, perhaps, whether the men
given authority lean to the right" or
to the 'left" as it is that they think ma
tionally rather than Individually.
When the international agreements
approved by the American people. 1t
must be a peace treaty of the people, not
of this or that clique or dominated by
any one school of thought.
Stettinius well can stand by and wait
for complete accord at home before he
starts on the international tasks.

VOTING BY MAIL INSTEAD
OF AT POLLING PLACES

His suggestion, together with his con-
viction of an Improvement over the pres
ent SYSTEM that California abandon its
election system for an all-mail balloting,
brings Secretary of State Frank NJ. JOr
dan into the limelight At first blush,
the plan gets no and that is natural.
The official calls for an innovation out
of the ordinary.
If. as Jordan contends, this system
will save the state $2,5O0,000 at each
and every statewide election, it will
receive sober thought.
Unless his plan is not full understood,
or lacks further explanation, it does not
retain one fundamental-the secrecy OF
the ballot. Present absentee balloting
eliminates this secrecy. Jordan would
have the marked ballot in a sealed en-
velope, and that receptacle enclosed in
another envelope containing the voters
affidavit But the two still are together.
Also he is putting deal of confidence
in human nature when he proposes that
the ballots be counted as returned. Here
is a point that calls for extra study. A
few states have double election boards
and the ballots are counted as they are
cast, but not so far in advance that wager
groups can use the count In JOrdan's
set-up, oath or no oath, the chance for
advance information is wide open.
However, like all progressive overtur2s,
the plan merits the attention of the in
coming legislature.
