Navy Discharge Dafe
OF Surplus Personnel
Moved Up As Days

Surplus Navy enlisted personnel
can be released as much as As days
ahead of their scheduled discharge
date under new orders just issued to
Navy commandants.
This was disclosed last night by
Vice Admiral L. E. Denfeld, chief of
the Navy Bureau of Personnel, in
announcing that "at this time we
can foresee nothing that will inter-
fere with the continued speed" of
Navy rehabilitation.
Score Cuts Forecast.
Under the new orders, Navy COM
mandants are allowed to expedite
release of transient enlisted person.
mel for whom suitable work cannot
be found in the naval district they
are passing through or in their home
naval district. Admiral Denfeld said
this move would tend to meet COM
plants that mems time is not being
used to advantage"
Admiral Denfeld said it was the
Navy's intention to continue an
nouncing reductions in the discharge
score to meet the Navy's previously
announced schedule. He predicted
the Navy will be half demobilized by
the end of this month. AS of Janu-
ary 8, he reported, the Navy demobi-
lization was slightly ahead of sched-
ule, with 1,316,299 officers and men
demobilized, and the Navy was re-
leasing at the rate of 10000 men a
day.
Enlistments Over Expectations.
The Navy, Admiral Denfeld said,
now has $4,000 men in it's Regular
Establishment toward it's proposed
peacetime strength of 100000 men.
The Regular forces, he explained,
must be recruited to fill the gaps
left by the release of Reserve and
drafted personnel as they reach their
critical scores. The personnel chief
said 4,300 men enlisted in the Navy
for the first time during the first
week in January, a total which he
described as well over normal ex-
pectations."
He said the Navy now has 10000
applicants from the ranks of Reserve
and temporary officers who want to
stay in the Regular Service and is
now receiving applications at the
rat Of 600 to 1000 week. He added
that so per cent Of the 10000 appl-
cants were exceptionally good.

Woodward & Lothrop
WageContract Settled
By Employees Union

Despite a factional dispute re-
sulting in resignation of one officer
and the refusal of another to quit
under fire, Woodward & Lothrop
Department Stores Employe Union
reached a wage contract settlement
last night.
With something less than half of
the independent unions 1000 men,
bers in attendance, the group voted
TO accept the company's proposal of
a 20 per cent wage increase and a
5-day 40-hour week.
Agree to Compromise.
The employees for the most part
have been working six-day weeks
with time and a half for the sixth
day. They asked 612 days pay for
five days work, but compromised
on the 20 per cent increase.
The new rates actually have
been in effect since the first of this
month on a temporary basis.

members demanded the resignation
of President c. Arthur Sherlock,

was vice president.
Resignation Declared.
When Mr.. Sherlock yielded the
chair to Mr.. Enwright, the latter
declared the custer motion out of
order because the meeting had been
called expressly to sanction the new
contract. Yielding to a voice vote,
Mr.. Enwright submitted his resigna-
ton, but Mr.. Sherlock refused.
Walter Hodkinson, a trustee, who
presided after Mr. Enwright re-
signed, said he would file formal
charges of incompetence against Mr..
Sherlock today. The latter insisted
on having hearing before the
