Brinton and ESSENTIAL WAR JOBS ARE BEING SOUGHT BY MANY KEY WESTER, RESIDING IN; NEW YORK, WRITES HERE ABOUT THE DIFFICULTY INVOLVED | Judge William V. Albury and Justice of the Peace Enrique quinaldo said today that scores of| Key Westers, who are married but | are engaged in occupations that have been classed as non-essen- | tial to the war-effort by Manpow- | er Chief Paul V. McNutt, have ap- pealed to them to obtain essential | jobs for them. This morning Justice Esquinal- do received a special delivery let-i from a Kev Wester who hz been residing in New York City} the last 15 years, The writer said that, so many thousands of men in non-essential } employment in New York are ap- plying for jobs that come under es sential war work, it was “impos- ; sible” for his to obtain that kind | of work in the metropolis. In commenting on the letter, Justice Esquinaldo said that his first consideration, in helping men to find jobs classified as im- portant to the war-effort, are resi- dent Key Westers, several of whom he has helped already. Judge Albury has written a let- ter to try to get a job for a Ke experienced in gen- work, including ter boat building. “NO. WE HAVE NO SHOES TODAY.” BUT TOMCRROW WE WILL, B. L. Grooms, chairman of the! Monroe County Rationing Bo: received 2 telegram yester that shoes had been placed on a rationing basis by the OPA. The OPA’s contemplated ac- tion in this matter had been kept a secret to offset ‘any movement that might have been made to hoard = shoes. Not even Mr. Grooms, himself, or any other chairmen of a rationing boar had been given any advanced in- formation that shoes would be rationed. So that there could not be any run in buying shoes, the OPA o: dered that none could be so} anywhere in the country today Sales will be started tomorrow, and, as Mr. Grooms pointed out, a pair of shoes may be obtained for coupon’ No. 17 in the No. 1 rationing Ook, which is now used in purchasing sugar and coffee. REDS MOVING (Continued from Page One) have been recaptured in the south- east sector. Three Russian armies are ad- vancing on Rostov, one from the! east, a second from the northeast } and the third from the southeast. The last-named is closest to that city and it is that army that the Stockholm report said has already | entered Rostov. Another Russian army is report-! ed today to be within artillery fire of Kurst, and still another army is said’to have reached the suburbs of Kharkov. ay GROCERS JOIN IN ;| densed Milk, THE KEY WEST CITIZEN Uncle Sam Needs No Weak Sisters eccccces seccacessacocacscoocecs: By MARGARET KERNODLE AP Features Writer | WASHINGTON, Feb. 8—Dr. Dorothy LaSalle is a worried) woman. | The thing she’s worried about | is the way women are losing | their chance to be physically fit | for war work—work they musty) do to enable more men to leaye| jcivilian life for military duty. i What's happening in too many.)
