Byrnes tonight outlined a pro gram for aiding 40 per cent or u. S. Industry to return swiftly to civilian production after the defeat de-feat of Germany but warned that "the fear of sunid people" may retard the government's effort to put the plan across. In a reconversion report to Jresident Roosevelt, Byrnes said discussion of peacetime produc tion at this time brought with it danger of diverting attention from the war effort but that he had confidence in "the common sense and sound Judgment of the Ameri can peopl.e" Byrnes set as the ultimate goal of reconversion maintenance of the present peak national Income and the high level of employment that goes with it. Expressed fears of prolonged unemployment for the 4,000,000 people expected to be out of war jobs after a German Ger-man collapse have been exaggerated, exagger-ated, he said. "We will speedily return to cl- vHian production," Byrnes pre dicted. "The pent-up demand for roods will come from a people who have the money with which to buy them. The fear of timid people may temporarily retard our return to full production and full 'employment. But it will be only for a short time." He revealed that special pro curement programs have been prepared and are ready to be put Into effect on "V-E" Day the day Germany surrenders. The government, ne saia, wm retain until final victory only the "best qualified" manufacturers. Privately-owned plants, not normally ngaged in military production, will be given first priority on re lease from war work. Government-owned nlants total ing 1,800, will be kept in opera tion of stand-by condition until their need is clearly unneeded. tlon be postponed until he was able to come to Buenos Aires to consult with the foreign office and return to Montevideo. When Chiappe returned to Montevideo ho discovered the committee had already approved the resolution which recommended the settlement settle-ment of ''the situation of lncom-patabllity lncom-patabllity existing in the committee commit-tee because of the fundamental divergencies of policy which separate sep-arate the Argentine republic from other countries of the continent in the face of the present conflict" The foreign office announcement announce-ment said the committee's action meant "the deliberate elimination of the member designated by Argentina Ar-gentina in the final voting on a project which directly concerned fcim." Labor Manpower Situation Here Not Improving SALT LAKE CITY. Sept. 9 (HE) The labor manpower situation in Utah is definitely not improving. This was the general conclusion reached by the state's war man power commission director Joseph S. Mayer, at a meeting of businessmen bus-inessmen in Salt Lake City last night. Mayer said that Utah industries need more than 10,000 male workers wor-kers 2,000 of these within the next week. The WMC director warned that some sort of a labor draft, directed di-rected at the less essential industries, indus-tries, may be necessary unless employers em-ployers voluntarily release all possible pos-sible manpower. He explained that the 2,000 men needed by Sept. 15 are for two of the state's highest priority war plants, the Geneva Steel mill at Provo and the Clearfield naval supply depot. .

In a Joint statement on submarine sub-marine and anti-submarine operations opera-tions last month, the president and Churchill said: "Last month, due to the effectiveness ef-fectiveness of the allied operations in France, the principal U-boat operating bases in the Bay of Biscay Bis-cay were neutralized. As a consequence, con-sequence, the Germans have been forced to operate their underseas craft from Norwegian and Batlic bases, thereby stretching even thinner their difficult lines of operation.
