New Move 10 Give House
Treaty Powers Launched

BY the Associated PfeSS.
A new approach to House move
to muscle in on the Senate's ex-
elusive treaty ratification power
was advanced today by Represent
ative Hinshaw, Republican, of
California, who proposed plan not
requiring constitutional revision.
He introduced two resolutions to
give the House an indirect voice in
treaty-making by granting it an
opportunity to say in advance
whether it will approve legisla-
ton to implement treaties.
The resolutions provide that In
the event a proposed treaty 'by its
terms stipulates any authority of
regulation on any subject submitted
by the Constitution to the power of
Congress" the President must sub
init the treaty to Congress as a
whole before sending it to the Sen
ate for ratification.
1t would be up to both Senate and
House to determine that the treaty
is conducive to the public good
and to pass ''all laws necessary and
proper for its execution"
Once Congress has Endorsed a
treaty by enacting the necessary
legislation, Mr.. Hinshaw said, Sen
ate ratification would be pro
forma" proposition.

Sharp Gains Reported
In Job Recruiting
For Critical Plants
py the Associated Press.

Hy the Associated Press.
The War Manpower Commits
sion today reported sharp gains
in the recruiting of workers for
critical munitions projects.
In new review of manpower re-
quirements, the agency said that as
of February 8, top priority war
plants needed 167 900 workers. This
compares with demand for 1871 900
on January II.
Actually 100000 workers were add
ed to the rolls during those four
weeks, but the expanding produce
ton schedules of critical plants adj
ded new requirements to cut the
demand by only $4,000 workers.
Requirements Increase.
Unlike WINGS last report, the new
survey ran into no clearance diff
culties at the Office of War Infor-
nation. The latest study empha-
sized, however, that "stepped-up'
military requirements overshadowed
marked gains in employment.
This emphasis was lacking in the
first version of WINGS earlier re-
port, which played up the gains.
Owl then insisted that the big task
ahead be stressed, and a labor pub
LEGATION later charged that this
policy was dictated by the Army
and Navy.
The new report deals mainly with
the immediate requirements Of
critical plants 1t indicates there
has been no appreciate change in
the overall need for 100000 workers
by July Is. That was the require
ment on January IL, compared with
TOO, 900 on January TO-
| Among the critical and expanding
munitions projects, VINO Chair
man McNutt cited these needs which
he said must be met by midyear:
Ammunition, combat and motor
vehicles, 10000 workers: aircraft,
900; communication and electronic
equipment, $4,000; ship repiar, $780,
900; basic metals and rubber, 10000.
Must" Plants Need 10000.
The immediate need for $4,000
workers was reported by 1,514 must"
plants, with about go per cent of
the requirements concentrated in
1873 firms, Mr. McNutt said A total
of LIZA plants reported an urgent
need of 100 workers or less.
In addition to rising production
schedules of critical plants, Mr.. Nc
Mutt listed these reasons for ex-
banding manpower requirements in
the next few months:
l. Large Withdrawals of workers
from war production for military
service.
2. Mounting demands for workers
in farm and food processing activi-
ties.

The Truman Williams conference
grew out of Mr.. Williams reported
rejection of a proposal from other
administration adherents that he
ask President Roosevelt to withdraw
his nomination, which was reported
unfavorably, IL to 8, by the Senate
Agriculture Committee yesterday.
According to the report, he pre-
fers to go down fighting in de-
tense of his reputation. which has
been subjected to repeated attacks
by Senator Mcclellan, Democrat, of

has denied Communistic leanings
charged by some of his opponents,
said he favors a floor fight.
We've got fighting chance"

"All I ask is that every Senator
read the entire record of the COM
