Major LeRoy R. Farmer, OASC manpower director, asserted that this depot is almost 1000 workers short of its authorized quota as set up by ASC headquarters. Many workers, "he said, could be immediately assigned if they were . . only available. The Hill Field command section revealed that with the growing emphasis on central - and south Pacific warfare this installation will be called upon to increase its supply and repair functions. The manpower survey which has been conducted throughout the Air Service Command including Hill Field was not accomplished with a view towards laying people off, it was emphasized. Rather, its purpose was, and ' still is, to effect a more economical utilization of personnel. In cases where an office or department has, say, one more employe that it needs to discharge its function, that employe, in nearly every case, is reassigned to some other job here, Major Farmer pointed out. To illustrate the need for additional personnel here, he said, recruiting efforts have been extended as far away as California, Texas, and Tennessee.

Members of the group who visited this depot are: Congressmen Thomas R. Martin, Paul J. Kilday, and Charles R. Clason. They were accompanied here by Lt Cols. George Inge and R. H. Thompson of the War Department general staff in Washington.
