When a grower is forced to cur

said, help was needed from
"other government agencies"
Romney and Nelson agreed
that machine tools still remained
a major problem in reconver-
sion of the industry. Richard
F. v. Stanton, of the WPB
tools division, has been as
signed to work with the car
akers on the problem Of OBJ
tanning the tools and facilities
needed.
The WPB already has ap-
prov we'd expenditures totaling

and equipment rehabilitation.
The WPB has been assured,
Nelson indicated, that the re-
quirements covered by this ap-
prevail represents minimum
with which the industry can
plan to return, on limited
basis, to car production.
REFUSE TO GUESS

when production of passenger
cars may be resumed.

that Detroit and Immediately
adjacent war production centers
have been classified as No. 2
labor shortages areas. Almost
since the start of the war the
Detroit area had been classified
as a No. l critical labor short

Cushman expressed the hope,
as did Senator Ferguson in
Washington, that the reclassifi-
cation might bring additional
war contracts to the area and
aid in the reconversion plan
ming of the car industry.
LAYOFFS PROBABLE
To some extent, however, lay
offs appeared to be more
probable. Approximately So

or job changes as result of the

ment and in Flint Harlow H.

recommendation by Dist. Gov. Claire
Manning that clubs exchange visits.
From Billings were Ralph Smith,
Frank Coleman, Bill Cooke, Harry
johnson and Ralph Wiggenhorn.

from his home club to the Laurel
Rotarians.

that Joe Jolley and Clay Greening
would be program committeeman
for November.
o. K. Chapman, committeeman
for October, opened the month by
following another suggestion from
the programs be devoted to the
Rotarian magazine. Chapman called
Stuart Johnson to discuss the
atomic bomb and its influence on
the future, using the current Ro-
tartan magazine as urce material.
Declaring himself a merchant rather
than a scientist, Johnson reviewed
the printed descriptions of atomic
force and made a hopeful prediction
that mankind would be intelligent
enough to not destroy itself. Be-
sides the possibility of destruction
the speaker told of probable great
benefits.
As a second speaker, Chapman
called Campbell Calvert to review
the story of a northern born and
educated Negro, Laurence Clifton
Jones, who has done much towards
spreading education among the
Negroes in central Mississippi.
From a beginning of S1.65 and three
students in 1909, Jones built the
Piney Woods school into a quarter
institution employing 80
.eachers and serving thousands of
people.
