of the civil service commission was forced to admit that estimates of his commission had gone haywire and that by the 'first of next July the federal pay roll—civilian alone—will be "somewhere between 2900000 and 3500000" The number on the pay roll on the first of last July was 2206- 000 But if the pay roll grows during the next four months at the rate it has been expanding during the past few1 months the aggregate on July 1943 would exceed the commissioner's maximum estimate Never in the history of the world did any maintain such a pay roll During the last World war the U S civilian pay roll was substantially less than 1000000 These figures caused Representative Andersen of Minnesota to make this observation: "A good man armed with the proper authority could go into this vast civil service system of ours and separate therefrom one out of every six without harming the war effort in the least and send those approximately 500000 men into the armed Services thereby giving an opportunity for an equal 500000 men skilled in the art of farming to go back and help produce the food the nation must have to win this war If that is an attack upon bureaucracy no ht top-flig- WASHINGTON March 6 CrEI—A house appropriations subcommittee has slashed by more than 50 per cent the funds sought by the agriculture department to recruit farm labor and has ordered revisions in the program it developed Saturday night—a new move to shape administration plans to congressional views The department wanted 000000 to recruit and transport labor to farms Of this $6000000 would have been allocated to the agriculture extension service to obtain the services of 3000000 persons for intrastate farm labor The remaining $59000000 would have gone to the farm security administration for interstate movement at government expense of 350000 seasonalworkers and 42000 to be d basis employed on a The subcommittee reduced the total apparently in the belief the plan should first be given a test with indications that additional funds will be forthcoming later if the program proves successful At the same time the subcommittee recommended that the entire program be placed under the extension service on the ground that it already has a working organization for the purpose This would deny the farm security administration any connec anticipated t Afore Gasoline Mess him: so

recovered from the shales mostly in the west Scotland has been oil and gasoline from prOucing shale for many years but the United States has not been able as yet to bring shale into commercial competition with crude oil Hence the current studies which are centering around the deposits of Garfield county Colorado the richest and most extensive shale deposits known in the United States Those same beds extend over into Utah and irito Wyoming but data now available indicates that the Colorado field contains about half the known oil now held in shale Whatever process is worked out for Colorado will some day be available in the Utah field But gasoline from shale admittedly is something for the distant future unless oil wells run dry faster than Governor of Ohio Assails Food Labor
