ed that this will be done as rap
idly as possible, consistent with
-. the demands of the war in the
South Pacific.
The revised program from the
standpoint of expenditures is in
accordance with the Presidents
request of July 4, l945, that all
Government agencies exercise ex-
IRENE care in the handling of
Government funds and the need
for keeping expenditures within
the absolute minimum essential
to efficient operation. Mr.. Will
Jams said that VINO in Florida,
through the operation of the new
Streamlined program. would show
a reduction of approximately SIS
per cent in its operation and a
reduction of IL per cent in ex-
penditures in operating cost of
the Employment Service.
MIR. Williams staff will consist
of Harry VanBrunt, Chief of En-
rloyment Division. z. T. John
son, Chief of Business Manage
r,ent' Division, H. E. Spaulding,
Chief of Reports and Analysis
Division, Fons A. Hathaway,
Chief of Training Division. and
r. E. Macdonald, Veterans EN-
ployment Representative,

Limited services on an itincrant
schedule were provided for other
counties with less than 10000
population.
Concluding, Mr.. Williams stat
cd that the changes made in the
VINO program and the United
States Employment Service, will
result in the saving of funds by
the elimination of needless jobs
of lost motion, duplication sof
effort, and will make the agency
a more efficient organization.

''Oh, | took a notion not to

The questions were asked this
morning by Peace Justice Enrique

STATE DIRECTOR OF MANPOWER
COMMISSION MAKES MOVE TOWARD
STRENGTHENING AGENCY PROGRAM

Boyce A. Williams, State Di.
rector, War Manpower Commits.
sion, announces that action has
been taken to strengthen the
agency and to adjust the program
to changes in war production and
shifts that have been made in the
light of present needs.
Reduction in personnel service
has been made. Government ex-
penditures reduced, and man.
power controls in certain areas
relaxed. These actions were taken
after thorough study and re-
view of the manroWer outlook in
the State were completed and
new problems analysed. Under
the new program problems of
transition from highly organized
and intensified war production
program are adjusted to condi-
tions arising out of demobiliza-
ton and reconversion. The activi-
tics of the War Manpower Com
mission will be limited to those
that are directly related to sup
porting the needs of the armed
services and to assisting employ
ers in obtaining workers to meet
their requirements and to assist
ing returning veterans in their
efforts to again take their place
n civilian life. Displaced war
workers would also have the at
tention of the United States En-
rloyment Service in their efforts
TO transfer to new jobs.
In working out the new pro-
gram, Mr.. Williams stated that
three general purposes were con-
Sidered-first, provision for furn-
lShlng manpower required to
keep existing war production on
schedule; second, provision to
secure for individuals who have
served~the Country in the conduct
of the war their rights; and third,
making it as easy as possible for
the veterans to secure his rights
and benefits under the c.. |. Bill
of Rights.
! 1t is expected that the release
of manrower from declining wal
production and from the armed
forces will result in sharp in
creaseS in unemployment unless
civilian production is encouraged
and permitted to expand at a rate
which will absorb those in need
of jobs.
Discussing relaxation of man.
power controls, Mr.. Williams stat

Points to Watch
in Blanket Buying

Durability Of the nap is an i'm
portant quality that every good blan-
ket should possess. says Hazel B
Strahan, of the textiles and clothing
department of Michigan State col
lege. To determine this quality
when purchasing blankets, Miss
Strahan suggests that the housewife
examine them to see If the weave
is firm enough and the fiber long
enough to be securely locked in the
weave structure.
A double weave, she says, has two
sets Of filling and permits more
mapping without the danger OF
Overlapping" A blanket that has
been over-napped provides warmth
at sacrifice of strength.
It is desirable to choose a blanket
10 inches longer and 10 inches wider
than the mattress. Wartime restric-
tons now limit blanket lengths to
"a inches, but this is usually ade-
quate. Rayon bindings ordinarily
hold color better in cleaning than
do sateen.
Moth-proofed blankets should be
checked to determine whether the
proofing is effective after repeated
launderings, or only after dry clean
ing.

Perkin Medal Is Awarded
Doctor Bolton Friday

NEW YORK, January 5 - Great
ly increased research programs, de-
signed to make up the lost time
in improving the American STAN
dard of living, will be launched by
the chemical industry once its lab
oratories have been relieved of war
duties, DR.. Elmer K. Bolton, chem
ical director of E. I. du Pont de
Nemours & Company, said tonight
in accepting the Perkin Medal
awarded him for outstanding accom-
plishments in the field of industrial
research.
But he warned that this expan-
sion faces the grave war caused
handicap Of serious shortage OF
well-trained chemists.
Since World War I, the chem
ical industry has made remarkable
progress" DR.. Bolton said, due in
a very important measure to the
friendly attitude of the government
toward research. Granted a con-
tinuation Of this attitude, organized
research will go on creating new
products, for what remains to be
done is far greater than anything
that has been accomplished IN the
past"
DR.. Bolton, the 39th recipient OF
the Perkin Medal, which is one o.
the highest awards that can come
to man in the chemical field
stressed that "the great store OF
scientific knowledge which has beer
accumulated In the past through
the careful painstaking investiga-
tons Of countless scientists becomes
Of value to society when research
points the way to Harvesting It tc
q practical application"
Dr.. Bolton pointed out that the
research which developed both neo-
prene. and nylon was carried out
during the years of business de-
preston. He said that "the fortunes
Of q research organization should
not follow profit and loss curve
Since the advent Of organized In
dustrial research, he continued, mod
ern industry has advanced human
knowledge In q way that was pre-
viously impossible. and beyond that,
1t converts the newly gained knowl-
edge into . higher standard Of Iv-
ing far more quickly and on larger
scale"
To-day, the achievements Of mod
ern industrial research have Led the
American people not only to accept
the new, but to expect and demand
It."
The Perkin Medal was founded
In 1905 In commentator Of the
fiftieth anniversary Of the coal-tar
color industry and was first award
ed to the eminent English scientist,
Sir William Henry Perkin, the in
ventor Of aniline dyes. The Society
has selected q medalist each year
since then. The award may be made
to any member Of the chemical pro-
fession residing in the United States.
It is made for outstanding work
IN applied chemistry done at any
time during his career, whether this
work proved successful at the time
Of execution or publication, or be-
came valuable in subsequent devel-
opment Of the industry"
