HARTFORD, August 28.——The ms
Ind jurisdiction of community labor
Ml, fourteen of which have been
established in Connecticut, is outlined
in a statement by Nathan A. Smyth'e,
0! Washington. Assistant Director-
General of the Federal Employment
Service. made public today through
the Connwtlcut State Council of De
lease. the department of publicity of
which has been charged with the duty
of informing the public" concerning the
Government's new labor program. Mr.
Smythe's statement follows:
"The community labor boards are
charged with the responsibility of de-
termining the methods which shall
(sovern the U. S. Employment Service
in attempting to Iecruit for war work
men from industries which are not di-
rectly connected with the prosecution
of the war, The power to determine
priority among industries and to
close up non—essential industries by
shutting off supplies rests with the
War industries Board.
“The U. S. Employment Service will
follow the priority determined by the
priorities board of the War industries
Board and the employment service
through all its agencies will keep in
systematic and constant cooperation
with the other divisions of the Govern
ment concern with man power and ma-
terial program.
“it is within the province of each
community labor board to list thoae
non-war industries in its community
which will first be called upon to con
tribute men to war work.
“This does not mean that such in
dustrios will be compelled to close up
or to discharge their male empioyes
at once. but with as much speed as
may be necessary to meet the nationa‘
emergency. they will release male
workers.
"We may as well face the facts.
Much work essential to cut program
is being seriously retarded by lack of
unskilled labor. in this situation it is
obviously wrong to bare able-bodied
men continuing to sell candy_ cigars
and like articles. to be doing work in
shops and stores which might with
reasonable effort on the part of the
employers be entrusted to women and
to be dancing attendants in clubs. bar-
ber shops. soft drink establishments.
bowling alleys, dancing academies and
elsewhere.
“Our war industries are suffering so-
verely for lack of skilled mechanics.
It therefore becomes a burden upon
the conscience of every person who
employs a chauffeur to determine
whether such employment is neces-
sary or merely for the gratification of
personal pleasure. ‘
"ldoreover every owner of an auto;
mobile should realise that every time“
he spends five dollars for automobile,
accessories, supplies or repairs. he is
in effect deterutnk‘ whether working
energies of the country shall‘be’devot-
ed torwlnnlns the war or to his own
.personal uses.
"The time has come when from the
standpoint of conservation of labor We
must all of us limit our expenses on
those thingswbich are essential."
The labor situation in essential in
dustrtes continues to be alarmingly
serious .accordlng to information front
Washington. War industries are short
a million unskilled laborers, and the
shortage of skilled workers is equally
serious.
Governor Marcua ll. Holcomb. when
asked about the national labor situa»
tion. said:
“The nerve which comes to us from
Washington is alarming. We have
realized that there was a nenormous
labor shortage. but i fear many of us
have failed to grasp its great propor-
tlona. There is but one thing to do.
War industries must be. suppliedwith
the labor they needed. If the available
source for this labor is non-essential
industry. then it must come from non-
essential industries. The Government
labor program has apparently been?
carefully worked out and both our,
players and empl0yes have representa-
tives on these important community
labor boards. which shall determine
what industries must give up men for
war plants. Connecticut has not balk-
ed at any war demand of the Govern-
ment. and i am sure Connecticut will
be ready to meet its labor demand.
whatever the cost be to industry
which means nothing to our success
in the War." > _
lra M. Graham. of New Haven. sec-
retary' of the Connecticut Federation
of Labor. expressed the belief ‘that.
Connecticut employee would meet with-
out a murmur the new labor program
of the Government.
‘ ”Labor~—and I use the term in its
broadest sense-has enlisted in the
vast army behind the lines upon which
our fighting men depend to fill all of
.their needs. Labor can—be depended
'upOn to come across."
I Officers of the Connecticut Manufac-
'turers‘ Association, when told the.
lfaets received.from Washington con-
:cerning ,the nation-wide labor crisis.
lsaid that members of the association
l always have been and are today ready
‘aetlvely to' support the Government
I
fully in its purpose of meeting all the ~
[labor demands of war industries.
