Chief Expects Manpower Problem Later; 30 Still On Eligible List.

Although the army and war work have thinned the ranks of the police department to the serious point, the fire department is in pretty good shape—at least for the present: There are still 30 odd men on the eligibility list of firemen. Out of the 607-man-department only seven are now in the 1A draft classification and the majority ‘have been|

MELBOURNE, Australis, Oct. 3 | (U. P.)~Japdn has a “three A” campaign in the erlands East Indies in an attempt to offset the allied V for victory slogan, the Netherlands News Agency reported Japan’s “three A” slogans are: “Nippon as the light of Asia, Nips pon as the mother ad Nippon as the leader of Asia.

Although ‘industry today offers attractive salaries, only two men have left the department for ‘that kind of work.

Situation May Get Worse

“Before the war is over, we prob-|-ably will face a manpower problem” Chief Harry H. Fulmer points out, “but we won’t have to worry until the early part of next year, at east. ” : When applications for jobs in the|} department were filed last May, 192 men applied. ' By the time the men had passed examinations of the merit commission and had gone through the rookie school, the number was cut to 60. . Tweénty-three' of Ahoss were ap-

had occured since the first of the year. This number of vacancies was, in part, due to 1As being called up for service. - Since’ June three more from the eligible list have been added to the staff. :

Some Already in Service

“As we go down the eligible list, we are finding that some men al-

Fulmer said. “Our beginners must be between 21 and 30. That's just the age the army wants them. “When we hold a rookie school next year, we are bound to find the list of men applying will be smaller. We have certain physical fitness requirements, too.” Chief Fulmer does ask deferments for his men on the basis that they are essential to the community. Some do get deferments for short periods. Although he has not yet had to worry about the manpower problem, he does see some “bright spots” in the way of alternatives if worse comes to worse. 1 He has had retired firemen offer to come back to work. In 1918, he pointed out, firemen were on continuous service 24 hours a day, six days a week.

STRAUSS IS NAMED UNIFORM RETAILER

WASHINGTON, Oct. 2. — IL. Strauss & Co., Inc., Indianapolis, is one of the 116 retailers throughout the country listed by the navy today as “selected to sell authorized uniforms.” The only other Indiana ‘ store listed was the Max Adler Co., South

ing as follows: : The navy department has designated 116 retail sotres which are authorized to sell ready-to-wear navy uniforms to commissioned officers and chief petty officers under the ‘U. 8. naval officers’ uniform plan.’ These stores will begin sales of authorized uniforms on Oct. 15 under maximum price regulations established by the navy department. Adoption of the plan will result in considerable savings to naval officers and elimination of current] waste of wool and other vital raw materials. . . . “Selection of the stores was made by. an impartial committee of outstanding retailers and their recommendations were concurred in by the navy. Selection of the retailers was based on (1) their geographical location and (2) their reputation and character, their financial standing and general retail efficiency, and their performance during recent years.”
