Rep. Costello (D@ Calf, chairman
OF a House committee on draft de-

are going to solve this manpower
problem within another month"
Costello's remarks were made as
his committee called War Manpow-
er Chief Paul V. McNutt to explain
the new program for occupstional
deferments for men under rs years
of age.
McNutt's new VINO deferment
committee starts series OF daily
sessions Thursday to work out the
critical plants which are to be
given consideration for deferment
OF a relatively few young key work
ers and al.ot quotas to the seven
government claimant agencies rep
resented on the body.
Donald NJ Nelson. whose War
Production Board is one of the
agencies on the committee. warned
that the drafting of young essenti-
al workers may bite deeper into
essential military production. Mel
son reported that munitions output
declined one per cent in February
and said "manpower still remains
a limiting factor in the output of
many munitions items-especially
such critical components as bear
ings, castings and fractional horse
power motors"

Costello. meanwhile. saw the pos
sibility that the new VINO COM
mittee. ultimately may assume jur-
isdiction in the matter OF defer
ment quotas for all draft age
classes
When we get the undergo group
cleaned up there still will be short
ages, and the ages under inter
agency jurisdiction probably will
be moved up to 2S or 30-and pos
sibly later to cover all reglstra-
ton brackets" Costello said.
At the same time. Costello re-

Child Center
Step Taken

The second step on the forma-
ton OF children's center for
southeastern Michigan was taken
at a meeting of the Washtenaw
County representatives held Mon
day evening at the Rackham Build

pices OF the County Child Guidance
Committee.
At the meeting the Washtenaw
County share of the proposed chill
dren's center amounting to $1,000
was approved and a committee is
to be appointed to devise ways and
means of securing this amount
Various suggestions were made by
those present as to the source Of
these funds and among those men
toned were the County Board Of
Supervisors, various county com
munity funds, luncheon clubs and
school districts.

treatment of children with prob
