On and after August 1, the supply- ing of all war inqustries w!‘thh common labor will be eentralized in thet United States Employment Service of the Fed- eral Department of Labor, and all in- dependent recruiting of commen labor by war industry manufacturers hay- ing a pay-roll of more than 100 men §,‘,‘,’ be diverted to the United States T’r’:li‘;ymem‘ Service. new government program will seriously affect Qonnecticut, with its large industrial centers. The order is in accordance with the decision of the War Labor Policies Board, approved by President Wilson on June ' #7th. Information concerning the effect of the new order was made public on Monday by the Department of Public- ity of the Connecticut State Council of Defense, which has been called upon by the Federal Department of Labor and the United States Employ ment Service for Connecticut to in- form the people of this state concetn- ing the new labor program of the Government. Big Job For Government. Government officials in Washington are convinced that the task of putting into effect the new labor program is the biggest job which Washington has undertaken since the time the Selec- tive Service law was put in opera- tion. While the first move of the Government includes - only unskilled labor, the Department of Labor con- templates the ultimate inclusion of re- cruiting and placing of all kinds of labor exclusively through the United States Employment Service. Stop Labor Selling and Poaching. The action of the Government was found necessary in order to overcome 2 perilous shortage of “unskilled labor and war industries in many localities. The shortage was aggravated by an almost universal practice of labor selling and poaching. While the re- strictions against the private employ- ment of labor apply only’ to common labor at the present time, these re- strictions will, as soon as possible be extended to include skilled labor. In the meantime, recruiting of skilled labor for war production will be sub- Ject to Federal regulrations which are now being prepared. - Protects Employer and Employe. The Department of Labor has fram- ed its program to protect both the emplover and the employe, to conserve the’ labor suply of the nation, and o cut down unnecessary and expen- sive labor turn-over. The big idea be- hind all of this is to increase the pro- duction of essential war materials. While non-essential industries. will be drawn upon to supply the neces- sary labor for war work, the with- jdrawal will be conducted on an equit- able basis in order to protect yie'in- dividuai employér as much as pos- sible. Under the operating mcXiods adopted, the country has been divided into 13 Federal districts, each district in charge of a superintendent of the United States Employment _service. Connecticut is in district No. 2, which comprises this state New York, and New Jersey. The district superintend- ent is John R. O'Leary of New York, and the State Director of the United States Employment Service is Leo A. Korper of Hartford, whose office is at the State Capitol, and who is carry- ing on his work in co-operation with the Connecticut State Council of De- fense. To date, six offices of the United States 'Employment Service have been established in this State, in Hartford, Bridgeport, New Haven, Waterbury, Willimantic, and Stamford Adyitional ‘offices are to be opened as tablished in all important centers' of rapidly as possible until they ave es the state, and are able adequately to handle the big problem of shifting labor. State and local advisory boards, representing workers and employers, are contemplated as a part of the sys- | {tem being built up. Check to Labor Shifting. A survey of labor réquirements is being made, and. in order that each community may be fully protected, ruling have been issued that no labor shall be transported out of any com- ity by the United States Employ- state to another without the approval of the United States Employment Ser- vice at Washington. The department iof labor announces that every effort will be made to discourage any move- | ment from community to community, | or state to state, by any other service. | The new labor program has the ap- proval of all producing departments of the Government through the War La- bor Policies Board. Farmlabor will be protected, for the industrial pro- gram distinctly includes special ef- .| fort to keep the farmers supplied with labor. Five Exceptions. The requirement that unskilled labor | must be recruited through the sole agency of the United States Employ ment Service does not at present ap- ply to the following five c: 1. Labor which is not directly or indirectly solicited. 2. Labor for the railroads. 3. Farm labor which is to be re- cruited in accordance with an exist- ing arrangement with the Department of Agriculture, 4. Labor for non-war work. 5. Labor for establishments whose maximum force does nat exceed 100. Will Assign State Quotas. When the survey of labor require- ments has been made and the ag- gregate demand for unskilled labor in war work has been found, each state will be assigned a quota representing the common labor to be drawn from among men engaged in non-essential industries in that state. These state quotas Will, in' turn. be distributed among lecalities. Within each locality employers in non-war work, includ- ing"those who are only partly in war work, will be asked to distribute the local quotas from time to time among themselves. This plan of labor quotas is designed by the Department of La- bor as a protection for all communi- ties. 'The object is to keep any com- | munity from being drained of labor, | and to use local supply as far as pos- Isible for local demands. The situa- itinn, however, is such that. in certain | cases, some men may have tqbe trang- ported over long distances. At same time, however, the Departmert of Labor has plans in opegation which will see to it that housing facilities ! are adequate before labar thus re- cruited is shifted into any community.
