Show I WMC Acts to Stabilize Employment on Farms The War Manpower Commission has announced a broad program for stabilizing employment on the nation's dairy, livestock and poultry poul-try farms. J. R. McCusker, regional WMC director, said the Selective Service System will request its local boards j to classify TJLT-B dairy, livestock and poultry farm workers who are deferred because of dependency. The local boards also will be asked to give occupational deferment to necessary workers on such farms as produce stipulated amounts of needed milk, meat or poultry. Mr. McCusker said arrangements have been made with both the Army and Navy to refrain from recruiting workers from essential dairy, livestock or poultry farms. All other employers also will be instructed to refrain from hiring such workers. |
