Three More Stricken
By Infantile Paralysis
As Third Child Dies
North CoroIino Boy,
D. c. Girl lotest Victims;
Is Treated So Far

As deaths from infantile paralysis
In the District this year rose to three
yesterday with the death of 7-year-
old Luther Fisher at Children's Hos
pital, the Health Department re-
ported three new cases.
The Fisher boy is the son of the
Rev. r. B. Fisher, who came here
from Lenoir, N. c., about a month
ago to serve as supply pastor of the
Lutheran Church of the Reforma-
ton, 2l2 East Capitol street. during
July. They were living at 1873
Pennsylvania avenue Sc.
The three new cases, all at Chill
dren's Hospital. were those of a g.
year-old boy of Laurel, Md; a A.
year-old girl from Brookmont, Md,
and 9-year-old District girl. Ac-
cording to Health Department sta
tistics, l6 persons have been treated
at District hospitals for the disease
since the outbreak of the disease
this year. Eight of the cases were
from the District.
The cases have been fairly evenly
distributed in the four sections Of
the city.
Two new cases in Virginia were
reported as State health officials
suggested that camps for children
close for the summer. The new
cases, in Hanover and Dickinson
Counties, raised the total for the
year to 49, The State Bureau of
Communicable Diseases also was
preparing letter suggesting that no
new camps for children oe estab-
hshed this season. A number of
camps already have Cancelled sched-
uled operations, the Associated Press
reported from Richmond.
The other deaths here were those
of James Gibson, 9, of 100 Eleventh
street NE, on Monday, and of Judy
Pitts, 81 months, of IA Thirty-fifth
street NE, on Tuesday.
No general quarantine or order
prohibiting public gatherings is con-
templated here, according to DR..
George C. Rutland, District health
officer, who explained today the
Health Department doesn't believe
the situation warrants such meas
ures. DR.. Rutland also said there
was no reason for the public to be
excessively perturbed over the out
break here.
He made the statement after con-
firming reports that he had advised
YWCA officials not to hold a regional
conference of Girl Reserves sched-
uled for the latter part of August
because 1t would have brought a
number of young people here from
North Carolina
DR.. Rutland said that whereas
general ban on public gatherings
might be effective in a rural COM
munity, it would serve no practical
purpose in city, as youngsters
would play together anyway.
The Health Department is watch
ing the spread of infantile paralysis
in areas adjacent to the Capital by
spotting cases on charts.
The department has already ad-
vised persons against travelling
through North Carolina, particu-
larly in the central part of the State.

OPA Adopts Rule to Ease

BY The Associated Press
Ration checks drawn on non-
existent ration bank accounts should
be charged to the depositor who
received the check. the Office of
Price Administration has informed
its district Offices.
This policy is being adopted, the
agency explained, because the de-
positor usually can recover the
points with least delay and difi-

Civil Service Gives
Veterans Year 10 Ask
For Old Jobs Back
Servicemen Also Get
Right to Ask Transfer to
Other Federal Agencies

The time required for veterans to
apply for unemployment in Gov
eminent positions has been extend.
ed to one year from date Of dis
charge the Civil Service Commission
announced today.
The commission also said 1t will
consider veterans requests to be as
signed to new departments and will
act on the recommendations of per-
sonnel officers who will interview
these men before restoring them to
former positions
The Selective Service Act, which
governs unemployment rights Of
veterans, requires the veteran to
apply for his old job within 40 days
after discharge from the armed
forces or lose his Unemployment
rights.
The problem of the returning
veteran who has difficulty in ad-
justing himself to civilian life was
also discussed and the commission
said it will offer an advisory service
to personnel officers in all veteran
readjustment cases.
The commission called attention
to the fact that many veterans have
had some form of schooling in the
service and that they might now be
suited for better positions than
when they entered the service and
that this should be kept in mind by
personnel officers.
The commission also recon-.
mends that these men be given any
advancement in position they would
have received if they had not been
called into the service unless they
have been incapacitated to such an
extent that they would not be
Il. suited for the promotion.
In discussing the problem Of
"psychoneurotics," the commission
says: Persons who develop this con-
dition are almost always highly in.
telligent, conscientious and indus
trious. With proper adjustment
these men make excellent employees
This is the first definite stand
taken by any Government agency
concerning the unemployment Of
psychoneurotics. The commission
suggests that the veteran be given
every advancement possible and be
allowed as long a period as possible
I for readjustment to civilian life.

Navy Issues Wage Priority to EBCO

Once again the Navy has proved in no uncertain terms the impor- tance with which it considers sub marine production. It has issued . priority to the Shipbuilding Com mission of the War Labor Board for approval of the learner and la- borer rate as submitted jointly by the Union and the Company. This Is the second time the Navy has issued priority to the WLB for the Electric Boat Company. The first priority was issued for the incentive system and resulted in its immediate retroactive approval. It is expected that once again the Navy priority will greatly expedite and hasten & favorable decision upon the new increased rates for all learners, 1aborerS and other workers In the lower brackets.
 In fact, if the Union were will ing to accept the wage bracket standards which the Commission is setting up for the whole East Coast the adjustment would go into eff feet immediately.
 However, the Union believes that there should be one decision for 1 all wage items fully retroactive to July 23rd, 1943. Accordingly the commission has been asked by the Union and the Company to issue it's approval of the learner and la- borer rates in one unit covering all retroactive dates and setting up exactly the same rates as submitted and which do vary from the East Coast standards by one penny in two or three instances.
 A great deal of time and con- l sideration has been given by the Union to the matter of getting i'm mediate approval of all the wage adjustments. Every possible step is being taken. Already three trips have been made to Washington by the Union counsel. Another one l will be made on March 20 by the attorney and representatives se- lected by the executive committee. No stone Is being left unturned in this all out and concentrated effort | by the Union to finish up all wage and contract items as quickly as possible so that collective bargain. ing can be finished for at least the

 We have . new representative for the time clerks on second shift. They have awakened at last. Keep them awake, Fitzpatrick-we know you are the man to do 1t. Let them know they really have a union.
 Come on, inspectors, don't stay out in the cold-you are the only group left in the Victory Yard without 8 representative. Pick your man-Send him in fighting keep him in fighting. The kind of representative you need is a fight ing Irishman. He will get you somewhere.
 The guards in the V. Yard want to say to Mir. Gus Yering that they know enough to go in out of the rain when they have chance. Do you?
 The Welders say watch our smoke; we will show you how to get ahead now that we have all the high school boys with us. They lack neither brains nor wit. I am told that is the combination that Is needed when the union execu- tives meet the management. Show ] us what you can do. welders; we are right with you.
 One crane operator in the South Yard has sum of $500 he is trying to double or part with. He would like to bet that the crane men will not get their raise in pay from the Labor Board. Anyone interested in this get in touch with Fred Bart man, south yard erector, as he is this mans business agent. Chapman says no bet; but is banking on Ward and O'Malley to bring back the goods from Washington. We have four erectors from the Fab. Shop transferred to the. ship filters department. Very sorry to see you go, boys. The best of luck to you on your new jobs, Spencer, Slim, Tony and Frank. We still hear the same cry, More men for the Second Shift" Why Is it the day foremen will not give transfers to a few men who want to get on the night shift?
 What is the matter with the painters representativeS-we don't see them at our lunch hour meet ings any more-is the stairway too hard to climb?
 The big talk of the month is 1 when do we get the back pay. Answer is: you tell us and we'll tell you. The WLB can not be rushed.
 Pretty tough, I call 1t. when a man gets couple of fingers smashed here on 8 Sunday and cannot get any treatment, not even an emergency car to take him out of the yard. What is the matter with the insurance company? Our army don't stop on Sunday, so why should our first aid at the V. Yard stop on Sunday?
 Why do we have to be treated like school kids and get sent home for four or five days at a time? Will give you the answer in the next SUB.
