815 REGISTERED FOR WORK WITH FOREST ARMY Enlistments Here Nearing County's First Quota of 980 Men. Majority of the 815 men registered at noon today for Morion county s "forest'’ battalion have been accepted tentatively as recruits. Final decision on one-seventh of the applications, found to be wanting due to failure to have families on relief rolls, will be made later. Many of the doubtful applications, presented at the enrollment headquarters in Tomlinson hall, will be accepted. Before the registration office closes this afternoon, the county's army in the campaign to end unemployment through government- ! paid forestry work is expected to reach 850 recruits. County (Junta Is 980 The county quota is 980. Checking of registrations is be- i ing hurried by relief agencies ol the city. Officials expect a call from the United States army to send the county quota through recruiting stations for physical examinations and final checkup. Each "forestry” private must be between the ages of 18 and 25. and his fmaily must be on relief either county or private charity. After the applicants pass physical examinations at army stations they will be sworn in and sent to Camp Knox, Ky., for physical reconditioning before they are put to work for six months in forests of Indiana. Open 8:30 a. m. to 3 p. m. Weight and softness of muscles will not be factors in the physical examination. Communicable diseases will be the main guards of the examinations. It is planned to continue the registration of recruits at Tomlinson hall after the county's quota is ob*tained. Possibility of some registrants being dropped will make way for latecomers in the woods army. Tin registration booths are open between the hours of 8:30 and 3 daily.

STIFF BATTLE TO BE FOUGHT ON 30-HOUR BILL Some Alarmed Industrial Leaders Seek to Save Old System. BY WILLIAM F. KERBY I'nited Prm Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, April 24.

The Black-Connery bill, revised to meet White House specifications, comes to its crucial congressional test this week. Tuesday, hearings begin before the house labor committee w’hich may well decide the economic course of the nation. The proposal: 1. A thirty-hour week, six-hour day for all industry to make more jobs. 2. A minimum wage for all workers to raise mass purchasing power to the highest possible level. 3.
