War Labor Needed--in war industries, the labor spokesman said.
Talk of Placing Older Draftees in Industries
Washington, March 20—(UP) —The United States, like Great Britain, probably will have to enact legislation eventually for compulsory allocation of its manpower, labor authorities said today.
The question was raised by the presidential order for registration under the Selective Service act on April 27 of 13,000,000 men between 45 and 64 years of age, inclusive. These men are too old for military service but an occupational survey of them will uncover "hundreds of thousands of hidden skills needed
Many of the men who will register next month will be the fathers, even the grandfathers, of men whose order numbers were determined in the last three lotteries.
F.D.R. Need Not Register
President Roosevelt, who was 60 on his last birthday, is within the age group but will not register because he is commander-in-chief of the armed forces.
President Roosevelt's new registration order did not include 18 and 19-year-olds who, although included under the Selective Service law, are not liable for military service.
Selective service officials gave two possible explanations why the younger group was not ordered to register. First, that Roosevelt may plan to "catch" these men as they turn 20 in registrations to be held every January while the war lasts. The youngest men now eligible for the draft are those who were 20 on or before last Dec. 31. Second, that the younger group which totals about 2,500,000 may be registered later in the year after the older men have been listed and sent occupational questionnaires. This plan appeared most probable.
No Trouble So Far
Employment service officials reported that to date they had encountered little difficulty in supplying industrial needs on the basis of information obtained in this way, and from the reserves of local employ- agencies, all of which now are under its jurisdiction.
This has been accomplished by offering higher wages, by appealing to the workers' patriotism, by utilizing skilled workers laid off because of priorities in non-war industries, and, as a last resort, by threatening immediate induction into the army, officials said.
However, WPB now plans to bring
at least 10,000,000 new workers into war industries this year. There is some doubt already that this can be done without compulsory labor allocation, it was said, although a large number of these workers will be women.
"They've had legislative power of this sort in England since early in the war," an employment service spokesman said, "but they've had to use it only in a few thousand cases.
"Much more important right now is the fact that we have no single agency to decide who works and who rights. Without such an agency a real conflict is bound to develop between industry and the army as manpower becomes less plentiful."
