power to the most urgent programs.
Maj. Gen. Lewis B. Hershey, Sc
lective service director, who will
follow Mr.. Krug, has written the
Senate committee indorsing the
House bill WITHOUT mention of any
amendments. Under both versions
of the bill selective service would
say who between 18 and IS should
move to more essential jobs. The
difference is that In the House draft
local draft boards also would say
where the men should 60, while the
Senate amendments leave War Mo-
bilization Director Byrnes free to
designate the placement agencies.
Ira Mosher, president Of the Ma
tional Association of Manufacturers,
the third witness for today, will be
the first opponent to 60 before the
Senate committee. This organiza-
ton has taken the position since
the bill was introduced in the House
that compulsory manpower control
Is not necessary.
Senator Chandler, Democrat. of
Kentucky, who announced last night
that he could not vote for the COM
pulsory bill on the basis of testi-
mony thus far, said he would make
another move when the committee
meets this morning to have the
hearings held in open session. Since
Tuesday they have been closed.
Labor Situation Improved.
Both Chairman Thomas and Sen
ator Chandler told reporters they
gathered from yesterdays testimony
that the manpower situation as of
January / was actually better than
it has ever been for the country as
a whole President Roosevelt, how
ever. in his message to the new Con-
gress early in January, recommend
led national service legislation, and
pending that, steps to obtain better
utilization of 4Fs. He also asked
that nurses be drafted for wal
service.
After Mr.. McNutt completed his
testimony, Chairman Thomas tolo
reporters that, as of January l, thi,
year, there we're only two real rea-
sons for the pending bill: 1, its
effect on morale, and 2, the uncer.
tainty as to the future course of the
war.
Senator Chandler said the testi-
mony indicated to him that the Wal
Manpower Commission can meet
the immediate manpower require.
ments without legislation.
According to Senator Thomas. ths
most uncertain factor as to future
manpower requirements is thu
course of the war in the Pacific
especially as it may effect the up
keep and repair of the expanded
American Navy. The Utah Senator
said the naval phase of the fight tt
regain the Philippines we're costl,

ability of repair crews is one of tn,

Science is still stumped to find a chemical detector better than the human nose. This organ can detect as little as one part of some smelly substances in half a million parts of air and the other sub- stances floating about in sniff full. A few human noses do better than that. Dogs noses are much better. Any man married to a woman with one of the very good noses should tell the truth.
