Col. Paul W. Wolf, com manding officer, stated that he had been informed by Josjpph . Mayer, state director of the War Manpower Commission, that the work week will continue in effcSk so long as this area remains in the critical No. 1 labor shortage category. Press dispatches during tne past few days carried the news that the War Manpower Commission at Washington, D. C, had delegated discretionary authority to us reg ional directors to revoke tne 10- hour work week in 28 areas. In cluded in the 28 areas was Ogden, Utah. WMC Chairman Paul V. Mc- Nutt described the move as a nutting these areas on the same basis as all others in the country. Actual revocation is dependent, McNutt explained, upon a finding hv regional directors "that its con tinuance is no longer necessary to alleviate labor shortages that are imnedinff the war effort. fitntp Director Maver authorized the following statement to be is sued in response to a query trom CoL Wolf's office: "As long as Ogden. Salt Lake City, and Tooele remain critical No. 1 labor shortage areas the work week will continue in effect. There is no indication at the present time that Ogden will be removed from the No. status inasmuch as a work in crease in the missions of war in spallations is anticipated as a re suit of the shift of the war effort to the Pacific." 48-ho- ur ATSC ktor" No Change , To Come Soon s These division leaders are Marie Keate from shop maintenance; maintenance division, with 651 votes to her credit or an equiva lent of $12,206 in bond backing Marjorie Tate from shop stock section in supply division with 413 votes or $7,T43; Afton Webster of construction utilities, headquarters and staff offices, with 888 votes or $16,650; and Darlene Beas lev from the technical library, per sonnel and base services division, with 108 votes or $2025.
