Army Sets Draft Quota
OF $4,000 in October;
Increase Of 10000
BY the Associated Press

The Army called on Selective
service today for an October
draft quota of $4,000 men, up
10000 from September.
There was no change in the age
group to be called-19 through 20.
The draft quota was raised with
out explanation on the heels of War
Department orders to speed the
release Of some 100000 nonvolun-
teer enlisted men.
officials said, however, the Army
would effect savings in money and
gain in efficiency by discharging
men who had only a few weeks or
months to serve and replacing them
with recruits who under the ex-
tended draft law must serve 18
months.
Volunteer enlistments, meanwhile,
continued to exceed advance esti-
mates. In the first two weeks of
September, %, ,239 signed up for the
Regular Army-nearly as many as
has been expected for the full
month.
Selective service headquarters said
reports from local boards indicated
the September draft quota of Is, 900
was met, chiefly with men between
10 and %. And officials predicted
the increased October demand like
wise will be fulfilled, provided Army
physical standards "are not applied
too strictly"
Maj. Gen. Lewis B. Hershey, ma
tional draft director, has estimated
the 19-through-29 manpower pool
at 15o, 900 men, but has forecast diff
f1culties in filling quotas after

movement is blackened by an un-
trustworthy, irresponsible, public-be-
damned leadership in this indepen-
dent union. No organization in the
CIO or AFL would have called this
wanton strike. They would have
kept their word and they would have
told their membership the truth"
He said labor shares with us the
responsibility of dealing with this
unnecessary strike of an uncon-
trolled union"
The $500 members of the union
responsible for cutting Pittsburgh s
power production to one-third of
normal, of throwing thousands of
steel workers and others into tenn
porary idleness and halting street
cars and buses, is made up of the
same kind of people who operate a
public utility anywhere in the
country.
Veterans Change Views.
They are home folks, average
patriotic citizens who in most cases
would stand by their stations in time
of emergency at the risk of personal
loss.
Many Of them are war veterans
and many of these veterans are sup
porting the strike with vigor. At Sat-
urday nights meeting in Carnegie
Hall, where the union reaffirmed
its intention of remaining out
members wearing honorable dis
charge buttons said they were back
ing the strike to the hilt and that
they believed TOO or 300 other vet.
Grams were with them.
Paradoxically the veterans ad-
mitted they were bitterly opposed
to strikes while they were serving
overseas and hearing of wartime
stoppages.

we are back and part Of the crowd, :

other ways are devised, we will
strike"
Negative Phrasing.
When the question of whether
the strike would continue was put
to the membership, it was given a
negative twist: Shall we reject the
company's offer?"
After the meeting the company
withdrew it's offer of a per cent
wage increase on a new holiday and
pension plan. The union claimed
the members would be required to
put 2 per cent of the raise into the
pension fund, but the comapny said
it would amount to only l per cent
and the members would get it back
with interest.
The union still is holding out for
all its original demands, including
one contract instead of nine for all
divisions of company workers and a
union shop. MI. Mueller has refused
to arbitrate as he did last spring
when another dispute was settled
with an 18-cent wage increase.
Hotel Strike to Be Voted On.
Although Mayor Lawrence told his
radio audience I'VE face the pros
pect of a total blackout," he told
newsmen later that present condi-
tions might be carried on "indefi-
nitely" unless sabotage or other de-
velopments arose.
The transportation tie-up has
been a perplexing one. Refusing to
push through pickets stationed at
car barns. motormen were told by
the AFL Central Labor Union and
their own union to ignore the strike
But the motormen took vote and
decided to stay out because of 'scab"
power supplied to the lines.
Another strike threat is in the
ofing with 1000 members of the
AFL Hotel and Restaurant Employees
Alliance scheduled to vote on stop
page at eight leading hotels. Such
strike would throw these hostelries,
already suffering from reduced cleo
tricity, into complete confusion.
