Place Left Vacant
By Sheppard's Death
Because of several requests in
¡ the last few weeks concerning
granting of deferment to draftees
at employers' request, the local
; draft board yesterday released ex-
jplanation of conditions necessary
I for such deferment.
I Local draft board members said
it was doubtful if anyone regis-
tered with the board now could
be granted deferment under strict
interpretation of regulations gov-
erning the situation.
The purpose of an occupational
deferment is to give the employer
time to fill the place of a "neces-
sary man."
A registrant shull be considered
a "necessary man" in industry,
business, employment, agricultural
pursuit, governmental service, or
in nny other service or ondea- j
vor, including training or prepar-
ation therefor, only whan all of
these conditions exst:

GRRKNVILLE, Tex., April 10
— Rep. Martin Dies <D-Tex>
plunged into his senatorial cam-
paign today with the demand that
the "agents of the dictators" be
expelled from national defense in-
dustries.
Dies spent the day here making
political hay On the town square
of the bidckland city where he
once sold baled Johnson grass and
butter milk as a farm boy.
Opening his campaign for the
senate left vacant by the death
of Morris Sheppard, Dies told a
crowd made up mostly of cotton
iarmersthat "the dictators have a
secret und un-uniformed army in
greater numbers than our own
army."
These soldiers, the chairman of
the house committee investigating
uri-Americanism charged, are "en-
trenched in key positions in de-
fense industries." "Their purpose,"
he said, "is to sabotage through
strikes, sit downs, slowdowns and
acts of destruction, the defense
program that is vital to preserva-
tion if our free institutions.
"Our chief problem today is to
save our institutions and the de-
mocratic processes from enemies
from within and from without. All
other problems will be beyond
hope of solution in our country If
this problem is not solved."
Dies said the committee of
which he is chairman is in pos-
session of incontrovertible evi-
dence "which will be made public
In hearings starting in a few days
that will prove that many of the
strikes in defense industries have
been instructed from abroad."
"No measure will be adequate
unless we expelí from defense in-
dustries these agents of the dic-
tators," he asserted.
"That must be our first step. If
I am elected to the senate I will
construe that election as a man-
date to carrv out a program call-
ing for the expulsion of undesir-
able aliens, and the detention and
outlawry of all foreign-controlled
political organizations."
If he is elected to the senate,
Dies said, he would immediately
introduce legislation to augment
and carry on the work now being
done by the house committee. He
said he believed a permanent com-
mittee should be authorized to
carry on investigations tending to
preserve democratic institutions.
The special senate election will
be held June 28.

Under the law and the regula-
tions local boards do not have au-

of the above conditions exist.

before any Amcricpn air, naval or
land forces could be sent outside
II will be required to make and j|K, wt>stern hemisphere and Am-
submit to the local board, either eijcan possessions. Like the anti-

criptlon of the employe's job in they planned an active campaign
sufficient detail to allow the local
to get it before the senate as soon
as the convoy legislation has been
disposed of. They reported, too,
the receipt of much mail urging
the adoption of the referendum
measure.
As the convoy resolution Is now
worded, It would prohibit the use
cf American naval units as escorts
for ships carrying war supplies.
Some of its backers, conceding
there was little chance for Its
adoption in that farm, devisad an
alternative today under which con-
voys could be ordered only with
the approval of congress.
Senator Nye (R-ND) said he
would introduce it and push it
In the foreign relations committee
the Tobey
measure.
"If the administration is sin-
cere in not wishing to gamble
American-lives by using convoya,"
he said, "there certainly should
be no objection to permitting con-
gress to act before convoys are
ordered,"
Meanwhile, Senator Norrls
find-Neb > deplored the current
sharp discussion of the convo^
question, saying It would only
"give Joy and pleasure to Hftler."

3. Facts supporting the claim
that the removal of this employee,
without immediate replacement,
would cause a material and sub-
stantial loss of effectiveness or
productivity in the employer's en-
terprise.
4 An estimate of the length of ns a compromise for
time It will take to train or oth-
erwise secure a replacement tor
this employe and the steps which
the employer, proposes to take to
secure such replacement.
5. A brief description of ttte
employer's products or services
and their usefulness and contribu-
tion to the well being of the com-
munity or the nation.
The affidavit should be given j
the employe to be appended to his
questionnaire or the affidavit
may be forwarded direct to the
local board. In either case, the af-
fidavit should reach the local
board not later than five days
from the time the questionnaire
was mailed to the employe.
A claim made by an employer
for occupational deferment of an
employee should not be sent to the
focal board until the registrant's
questionnaire has been mailed to
him, nor should such claim be
considered by the local board un-
til the questionnaire has been re-
turned to It.
It is Important that copies of
these affidavits, directly identifi-
able with the registrant, be for-
warded promptly, by the employ-
er, to State Selective Service
Headquarters at Austin, for the
attention of the Stote Advisor * on
Occupational Deferments, Colonel
Dwight Horton and Major James
B. Arthur.
The period of deferment will be
fixed by the local board. In no
ease shall such deferment exceed
six months. It Is encumbent upon
the employer to train or secure a
replacement so that the registrant
may be inducted for his year's
training.
The employe is required to re-
port to the local board any
change In his status which would
•riffect his classification, within
five days of any such change.
Where an employer has submitted
ah affidavit to a local board, there
Is an equal responsibility upon
him to notify the board as to any
material change in the facts as
stated therein.
Under the Selective Service reg-
ulations, an employer may not
appeal where his claim for occu-
pational deferment has been re-
fused by the local board. However,
a governmental appeal agent Is
assigned to each local board to
protect the interests of the gov-
ernment, and he may and will
appeal caaes where, in his opin-
ion. the national interest Is in-
volved.

I've been busy again!!
Kvery time some new equip-
ment comes in I always get first
shot at using it. And this time was
no exception. The new curtain
equipment came In Thursday and
I went to work—and I am un-
qualifiedly ready to state to all
and sundry that there just ain't
no better curtain equipment any-
where.
It certainly is nice to work with
too. Formerly we had to almost
have the consent of the U. S. Sen-
ate to get the old curtain stretch-
er readjusted—but you can change
the size on this one in about two
seconds.
And will it handle a big curtain
or not! Folks, believe it or not, I
stretched out one of these beauti-
ful luce table cloths yesterday
without so much as a minute's
trouble. The tublecloth was ninety
inches long and six feet wide—and
I had almost room enough on the
stretcher for another one the same
size.
WASHINGTON, April 1 —<fl")
— Secretary Perkins making an
appeal in the name of national
defense, asked today that soft coal
production in northern mines
resumed Tuesday, but her reqi
was turned down by both the CIO
United Mine Workers and north-
ern operators.
In a telegram to the UMW and
the northern ojierator*, who reach-
ed an agreement on wages several
days ago, Miss Perkins said that
"in the public Interest as well as
in the public safety" the Northern
Mines should be reopened despite
fallun- of the UMW to reach an
agreement with southern opera-
tors.
To the southern mine owners—
who withdrew a week ago from
the eight-state appalachian wage
conference in New York — she
telegraphed a request that they
i "meet promptly" with union offi-
i rials "for the purpose of negotlat-
Í >ug and reaching an early agree-
ment."
Then she ordered the labor de-
partment's chief conciliator Dr.
John R. Steelman, to hurry back
from New TTork.
Her telegrams brought these
replies:

said his union was "not inclined
