Here export figures also go into the hush-hush sphere, but it's easy to figure that 1942 ex.. port went over $l 900, 900, since Latin American countries alone got over $500, 900 worth. Argentina is con- spicious by absence from this years lists) Other countries are known to have gotten sizeable amounts. TEA reports that no matches have been lend-leaSed. UNRRA says only a minute amount have appeared on their acquisitions for relief uses, no large future requirements are fore- seen.
 There's the match situation. Pro- duction is off a bit, demand is high e. with military buyers scooping up big amounts, imports are down, ex- ports are up. However it strikes you, you'll probably be looking for a cig- arette lighting fixture soon, if it's no more than something in which to tote a bundle of kitchen matches.

Var Job Cutters
Is Just RumOr

WASHINGTON (LPA)-That
much -touted exodus from war
industries just isn't so, the CLOS
Economic Outlook asserts in the
current issue.
American wage earners are
being done a grave injustice by
scare headlines about the 'ex-
odus' of workers from war
plants to secure peacetime
jobs" the CIO Research Dept.
publication maintains.
"The press and certain Army
officials have created picture
in the public mind, and in the
minds of soldiers and sailors,
that shortages are now occur
ring because workers are fall
ing over each other in their
flight from war jobs"
"The facts do not bear out
these assertions" the report
continued, quoting facts and fig
ures from the War Production
Board and the Bureau of Labor
Statistics to prove the point.
"Shipyard workers have been
under special attack for leaving
war jobs" the Outlook article
notes. Several weeks ago ship
building magnate Henry j.
Kaiser gave a statement to the
press after visiting President
Roosevelt in which he main
tanned that his major manpower
problem at his West Coast yards
was workers quitting, "Yet," the
CIO reports, "the quit rate for
private shipyards has been lower
every month but one this year,
through September, than they
were last year. Quits on the
West Coast, where 40o of the
employment in private ship
yards is concentrated, were
lower every month"
