MANP0WER PLANS
FACE MORE DELAY

WASHINGTON, March 1o-U.D-
The long delayed manpower bill
tonight faced the prospect Of be.
ing held up further.
Chairman Andrew J. May, D.,
KY, of the House Military Affairs
Committee, said he planned to ask
Monday for appointment of con-
ference committee to iron out wide
differences in House and Senate
versions of the legislation. But
opponents limited that they might
block this move, which requires
unanimous consent, by parlia-
mentary objection.
May said that in such an event
he would ask the rules committee
for a resolution whereby the same
objective could be achieved by a
majority vote of the House. That,
however, probably would take up
several days during which the
Manpower Bill would be going
nowhere.
The House and Senate bills en-
brace opposite theories of man.
power control and the possibility
existed that conferences might not
be able to agree on compromise
Legislation. In that event, there
would be no Manpower Control
Law. .--.s-,-. ...--...
President Roosevelt's newest ap-
peal for prompt enactment of some
form of manpower legislation ap-
peared to have achieved little or
no progress.
He said during his Friday news
conference that he had not chang
ed his views on the problem. AS
expressed several times previous
ly, those views are that war plants
do not have adequate numbers of
workers and that the way to get
them is to give some federal agen-
cy authority to tell individuals
where they should work
The House accepted this theory
when it passed a bill several weeks
ago. It provided penalties for men
10 to As who refuse to stay in or
take war industry jobs. But the
Senate baked.
The bill finally passed by the
Senate on Thursday provided no
penalties for workers. Instead, it
gave statutory authority to war
manpower commission orders linn
iting the numbers of workers en-
ployers may have and provided
penalties for recalcitrant employ
ers.
There was no indication of a
yielding attitude among leaders OF
either the House or the Senate.

Household Almanac
Whole Meal Shortcakes7
By FLORENCE BROBECK
WOmen's Editor


ONE of the best dinners
~ any family can sit down
to is made with a big short
cake as the main dish. Not
a fruit shortcake, such as
we all like this time of year
as dessert, but a whole
meal shortcake made of
chicken, meat, fish, vege-
tables or any one of many
good toppings.
A rich, delicious biscuit
dough is the base for any
shortcake; the toppings can
be varied according TO what
is available at the grocer's,
or what is ready to gather
in the Victory garden. or the
supplies on hand in the
refrigerator and kitchen
shelves, or in your deep
frozen lockers. And don't
forget the quick-frozen vege-
tables, fish, m "a is and
chicken at the grocer's.
To make your summer
menus as simple as pos
sible, I've worked out top
pings all of which start
with a basic white sauce.
With two cups of hot sauce,
and two cups of chopped,
cooked meat or some other
mixture and interesting sea-
sonings.~the=t is
ready.
