Call for Placement
Of n, 900 Weekly

With scores Of war plants in this
region reportedly falling behind in
production schedules, an appeal for
more workers to switch to war jobs
was issued today by Henry E. Treide
director Of region 4, which includes
the District, Maryland, Virginia and
West Virginia.
Recruitment goals for the region
Mr.. Treide said. called for the place
ment, through the end of the year
Of 1900 persons a week in war In
dustry. including 1900 who would
be sent to places outside region 4.
Scores Of war plants in Baltimore
and in Hampton Roads, Va, were
running behind schedule in the
building Of combat and cargo ships
transports, combat planes, com.
munications equipment, cotton duck
for housing, radar, rocket and
mortar powder and heavy artillery
ammunition because of the short
age Of manpower, it was reported.
Mr.. Treide told the Regional
Management-Labor Committee that
about 10000 workers are needed In
Baltimore. Hampton Roads. Rad
ford and Dublin, Va, and in other
war production centers in the region
In Baltimore. he said. workers are
needed at the Glenn L. Martin Co.
the Bethlehem -Sparrows Point Ship
yard, the Bethlehem Steel Co., Key
Highway Division and the Bethle-
hem-Fairfield Shipyard.
Mr.. Treide said the principal rea-
son for the trend away from wal
production employment, which de-
veloped during the summer, was the
widespread belief that the war was
nearly over and the desire of many
workers to obtain jobs which they
believed offered greater postwar op-
portunities. He pointed out that un-
less present employment gaps are
filled, production Of many vital war
commodities win be delayed, thus af-
fecting the war both in Europe and
the Pacific.

-Four WACS Lose Rank
For Telling Grievances
10 Washington Paper
Fort BeIvoir Declares
Most Charges Untrue;
Girls to Be Reprimonded

Four WACS stationed at Fort Bel
votr, Va, are being reduced from
noncommissioned rank and are
being reprimanded for giving q
Washington newspaper q report OF
their grievances over alleged mis-
treatment at the hands of superior
officers.
In statement issued at the lost
last night, the public relations Office
said most Of the statements given q
reporter by the WACS and printed
in good faith by certain newspapers
have been proved to be completely
untrue" Other statements, it was
said, were partly false and wholly
misleading"
The charges, made by four un-
identified WACS October ~, blamed
the transfer Of popular member OF
the WAC unit at the post on their
commanding onicer, Capt. Dorothy
Tomhave.
They also charged that q chaplain,
who had attempted to take their
grievances to the commanding gen.
eral had been denied access to that
omcer; that the commanding ofncer
had spent company funds without
their approval; that she had in
sisted that WACS make curtains on
their only free evenings and had
created the impression that a large
organized group were prepared to
60 AWOL.
! Post ofhcials said the chaplain has
stated under oath that he never
attempted to see the commanding
general and was never reprimanded
by the executive onicer. Further
more, of1cials said, the commando
ing omcer, who under Army regula-
tions, Is the one to decide how COM
pany funds are to be spent, actually
discussed the spending Of these
funds at an open meeting.
They said II pairs Of curtains for
the WAC recreation hall were is
sued to be hemmed over q 21z week
period and that the commanding
omcer herself hemmed two pairs in
one hour. Post officials said q care
full investigation failed to disclose
any evidence Of an organized move
on the part Of WACS to 60 AWOI..
Have Right to Air Grievance.
Post oficials emphasized that
there Is a standing order at Fort
Belvoir that any enlisted man or
woman who has complaint or
grievance has right to present it
personally to the commanding OIL
Ger, and If not satisfied, to take it to
the next highest officer.
"They chose to impose upon the
confidence Of the press instead of
using this simple means of having
their grievances recorded and in
vestigated. The effect of their action
has been to bring public criticism
and ridicule upon q fine and patri-
otic body Of American women" the
statement said.
