els May Serve
for Six Months
after War Ends

WASHINGTON, Aug. IA -
(P)- Surrender by Japan will
not necessarily mean that SOL
diers can get out Of the Army
within a half year. even
though their booking is for the
duration plus six months"
Army legal authorities, asked
for an Interpretation, said today
that cessation of hostilities will
not mean termination of the war
under the provisions of the Sc
lective Service Act.
This will come, they said, up
on the conclusion of peace
treaty, upon Presidential proc
lamation ending the war, or by
a joint peace resolution of Con-
gress.
After any one of those events,
they held, a soldier still will be
liable for service for an addi-
tional six months if the Army
wants to keep him. This, they
said, will apply to men who en-
listed in the Army as well as
THOSE who were indicted.
A Selective Service spokes-
man said today that inductions
will be continued, to meet Army
and Navy needs, until Congress
or the President acts or unit,
the present draft law expires
next May IS.

EXPRESS CONFIDENCE

Taylor voiced his strike pre-
dictions in an interview after a
visit TO the White House yester-
day. Saying 1T took big nation
of big people TO accomplish what
we have in this war;" the WLB
chairman added: Il can't think
that we will change over night.
There probably will be some
strikes. There probably will be
some workers who think their
union is being threatened, or
some employer who thinks he
has an unbearable problem
but | am confident there Will be
no wave or rash Of strikes"

But Letdown Will Be Only
Temporary If US Acts Fast

Alike in their views although
representing separate agencies,
these economists - anonymous
al their own requeSt-sald un-
employment might rise TO eight
or nine million next year unless
the government moves 10 pre-
vent such an increase.
Che number hunting jobs
now has been estimated al L.
100000; II stood at 100000 in
1882, low point of the depreS-
SlonD
The economists added that un-
employment should be & n
shrinking late in 1916 or early
l947. They emphasized, hoWev-
err, that no one can estimate the
extent of the Shrinkage.
STATEMENT EXPECTED
Today's reconverslon scene
also included these other de-
velopments:
!. 1t was learned that John w.
Snyder, director of war moblli-
zation and reconverSlon, is pre-
pairing general statement on
reconverSIon policy. This state

8. Officials acquainted with
the subject said wage contro4s
might be eased somewhat IN the
near future but that no radical
revision of the Little Steel wage
Formula is likely. They said
employers and workers might
be allowed TO negotiate wage IN
creases in cases where the adj
justments wouldn't lead TO price
rises. The Little Steel Formula
holds basic wage rates TO 10 per
cent above January, l94l levels.

relax restrictions little at d
time. Used truck tires were re-
moved from rationing. SO were
passenger car tires made from
reclaimed rubber. And so were
moccasin-type house slippers,
even though they may have

WASHINGTON. Aug 13-tP
The end of hostilities will
bring no immediate termination
to the various emergency war
agencies.
The various regulations and
orders which they have been
promulgated are expected to re-
main in effect until the respec-

individual plans for the postwar
period.
The White House has ordered
the agencies to keep mum for
the present on what their official
postwar plans are, although the
War Production Board is expect
ed TO state its aims soon.

 SEALSkIN5 E
 TAKE THIS YEAR

ST PAUL. Pribilof Islands, Alaska. Aug. 9.-Completion of the annual fur seal kill with the taking of 76,- 964 skins with processed value of approximately $4,000 900 was an- nounced today by Federal Fish and Wildlife officials. The kill fell 5000 short of the goal. but was nearly double last years low figure of 30,000 skins.
 The Alaska Department of the Army aided the sealing expedition as it has the past two years, by send ing small detachment of soldiers to St. Paul and St. George islands in the Boring Sea, scene of the fur sealing activities.
 The CT sealers, all Aleuts who liv- ed in the Pribilofs before entering service, are experts in culling the seal herds for three -year-olds. the only animal killed since the United States, Great Britain. Russia and Japan agreed in 1911 to end indis- criminate slaughter. Rights of Japan were automatically abrogated when the war started. and since then skins have been divided among the remaining nations.
 Skins are processed each year in St. Louis, Mo. then sold to manu- lecturers at government auction.

supposed to govern occupied Ger many do not have full blueprint of how Germany shall be occupied. For instance, order 1067 specifics that Germany shall have no higher standard of living than her sur- rounding neighbors
 Yet France, Belgium, Czechoslo- vakia now complain that Germany is prosperous while they are suffer- ing. Meanwhile, Gen. Wade .Hai- slip and Robert w. Grow, just back from Berlin, testify to the quick recovery and general prosperity of Germany.
 Believing therefore, that one of our chief objectiyrs is to prevent Germany from ever again plunging the world into war; and believing this depends on our present and future treatment of Germany; finally believing that every An1.ri- can contributing to the war is en- titled to know the exact blueprint for governing Germany and how it is being carried out, this column hereby publishes the essential DOT tions of that blurprint-JCS 1067.

NAGA5AkIIS TARGET FOR NEW WEAPON
Crewmen Who Dropped Mighty Missile Say
 Results Good
By Murlin Spencer

GUAM, Aug. 9.-The worlds most destructive force-the atomic bomb was used for the second time against Japan today, striking the important Kyushu Island city of Nagasaki with observed good re- suits"
 More than one bomb may have been dropped in this second attack and it might have been of a differ cnt size than the first one which destroyed 60 per cent of Hiroshima. The carefully worded communique said only that the second use of the atomic bomb had occurred, leaving to speculation all other details.
 The bomb was dropped at noon. Japanese time-about nine hours af- ter Tokyo radio reported Red Army troops had backed up Russia's de- claration of war on Japan by at tacking enemy forces in eastern Manchukuo both by land and by air, and while four other Japanese cities still burned from round-the- clock B-29 incendiary and demolition attacks.
 Nagasaki. western Kyushu seaport and railroad terminal wath an esti- mated 225,Ooo population in its l2 square miles. was far more im- portant military target.
 General Spaatz' U. s. Army Stra- tegic Air Force headquarters said Nagasaki, with it's houses jam packed probably was even more vulnerable to an atom bombing
 Crewmen who dropped the mighty atom on Nagasaki immediately flashed good results" via radio to Spaatz headquarters.
 Immediately before issuing his Ma gasaki atom bomb communique, Spaatz had reported that 402 Super forts carrying 2,3O0 tons of incen- diaries and demolition bombs had achieved excellent results in attack ing four other major targets yes- terday and early today.
 Three Superforts were lost.
 Additionally, 78 Mustangs and Thunderbolts from Two struck four airfields and other targets in the Osaka area yesterday.
