|USES Reports
Shortage Develops
As Call for Office
Personnel Here Rises

Wartime conditions are causing
a heavy demand in Washington
for certain types of workers, par
ticularly Office employees, accord
ing to the United States Employ
ment Service.
The supply of women workers
is not entirely meeting the de-
mands of Government agencies
and private employers since the
Skills required are not always rep
resented in USES files, the agency
reported yesterday.
Demands for stenographers,
typists, tabulating machine op-
orators and supervisors, teletype
operators, varitypists and all types
of engineers continues to in
crease" new report stated.
Sharp Rise in Demand.
Overall job openings increased
IS per cent during the past quar-
ter over year ago. Demands for
clerical and professional workers
more than doubled; requests for
industrial men and hotel and
restaurant workers were up 63
per cent, and domestic and in
dustrial women, up 80 per cent"
January employment in the Dis
trict was estimated at 470,100-a
drop of $500, or nearly 2 per cent,
from the December figure. A de-
crease of 1900 was shown for the
Government, occasioned by the
layof of temporary Post Office
workers hired to handle Christ
mas mail. Wholesale and retail
trade declined 1000. or 7 per cent.
Most of this was, in the general
merchandise store group, reflect
ing a return to normal stating
after the holiday buying season.
The report stated that sub
stantial number of the postal
workers were students, and many
of the temporary workers in stores
were housewives, all of whom are
not now in the labor market.
Some Declines Elsewhere.
USES also said declines ap-
peared in a few other activities,
such as railroads, buslines, truck
ing and other transportation and
miscellaneous service establish
ments.
Employment in other types of
businesses ranged from no change
to increases approaching per
cent during the month. A COM
parison of January, 1851, with a
year ago shows total employment
up 4 per cent, or 1890. Govern
ment agencies accounted for an
increase of 14.400.
New applicants for employment
during the November to January
quarter increased about 500 over
those in the same period a year
ago.

Move 10 Hold HEARINGS
On Representation
Follows Co||aday Plea
By Harold B. Rooers

The possibility OF congressional
public hearings on national repre-
sentation for Washington today
grew out of surprise developments
on Capitol Hill.
Senator Nicely, Democrat. of
West Virginia, sponsor of legisla-
ton for both national and local
suffrage here, apparently has
cleared the way for consideration
by the Senate Judiciary Commit
tee of his resolution to grant
District residents votes for Presi-
dent, Vice President and members
of Congress.
AS result, Edward F. Cola
day, general counsel of the Wash
ington Board of Trade. leading
champion of national representa-
ton, plans to confer "as soon as
possible" with Chairman McCar-
ran of the Senate Judiciary Com
mittee.
In a telegram advising Senator
Neely of Mr.. Colladay's plans
Thornton w. Owen, board presi-
dent, expressed confidence that
the Senator's assistance will en-
able the city to attain this i'm
portant objective within the near
future"
The Nicely resolution for Con-
stitutional amendment to au-
thorize national representation
here is pending before the judi
ciary group.
Mr.. Colladay made plea for
hearings on national representa-
ton during his testimony before
the Senate District Committee
yesterday, where he opposed any
home-rule legislation unless ma
tional suffrage came first.
Neely Sees McCarran.
Senator Nicely, chairman of the
District Committee. then prom
ised to take up the prospect of
Judiciary Committee hearings on
the proposed Constitutional
amendment with Senator McCar-
ran. This he did later yesterday,
with the result, he said, that Sen
ator McCarran indicated he would
welcome a conference with Mr..
Colladay on the matter.
Under customary procedure. q
Judiciary subcommittee would be
set up to conduct the hearings, If
Senator McCarran agreed.
Meanwhile, Senator Nicely has
recessed hearings on the Ke-
fauver-Taft home rule bill, OF
which he also is joint sponsor
until 10 am. Monday.
Several witnesses who asked to
testify against home rule legisla-
ton and others who also were
scheduled for appearances yes
terday are on the list for the next
session.
During the home rule hearing
yesterday. Senator Nicely and Mr.
Colladay differed sharply on the
merits of the pending home rule
measure but were entirely In
agreement on the issue of nationa.
suffrage for Washington.
The Senator charged at one
point that Washington, under the
present commission form Of gov
ernment, is one of the worst
governed" cities, with bad crime
reputation nationally.
Defended by Colladay.
To this Mr.. Colladay replied the
Board of Trade was satisfied with
the present government, and de-
Tended it as one with no bribery
no corruption.
Senator Neely and Mr.. Colladay
differed on what the Republican
national platform meant when il
favored self government.
Senator Nicely contended that
the platform plank, which read
1--WE favor self-government for the
residents of the Nations Capital, u
constituted specific approval for
home rule.
