Harness Tells House Unit Hoosier Boards Say Army Deferring Men.

Times : Special

WASHINGTON, Feb, 24—War projects in Indiana are expected to be included in an investigation by a special house military affairs subcommittee authorized yesterday to see whether the army itself is obtaining an unusual number of draft deferments for civilian employees.

The sub-commitiee was set upon the motion of Rep. Forest A. Harness (R. Ind), who is expected to be named a member of Chairman Andrew May (D. Ky.) of the house military affairs committee. Mr. Harness told his fellow committeemen that he has received numerous letters from draft board members (including one from board 3 in Indianapolis) backing up the charge that the army itself is keeping men out of the service. “We will extend this investigation to all government departments also,” Mr. Harness said. “There is a war manpower commission directive which seems to offer federal employees immunity, from the draft. “What the war department has done regarding their civilian employees will be thoroughly explored. If I am named on the subcommittee I shall insist that we visit the Charlestown, Columbus and La Porte setups in Indiana.”

PROBE OF DRAFT Bill to 'Freeze'

Shaves in Senate

THE SENATE TODAY received the house-approved bill to freeze prices on shaves and haircuts at Dec. 31 levels: and making the state barber board a “little OPA” to control the prices.

2 CONFERENCES

One to Deal With Relief During War, the Other

Post-War Food.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 24 (U. P.). —The United States today is ar‘ranging two conferences of united nations’ representatives—one dealing with relief measures during the war, the other with the problem of feeding the world after the war. President Roosevelt discussed the|; feod conference at his press conference yesterday. He also disclosed that other agencies of the government are planning the relief conversations. A definite line is being drawn in preliminary discussions between the two subjects, the president said. Relief agencies are caring for the war emergencies of famine and malnutrition, while the post-war food situation will be canvassed separately.

Discusses Conference

The fodd conference will be held this spring. Mr. Roosevelt believes that it should be held in a small city and mentioned the success of the Casablanca conference as a reason for preferring to avoid large centers of population. President Roosevelt discussed the two situations in replying to a question concerning a White House conference Monday with Secretary of State Cordell Hull, Undersecretary Sumner Welles, Myron C. Taylor, the president’s envoy to the Vatican; President Isaiah Bowman of Johns Hopkins university, and others. He replied that the conferees were considering some kind of a meeting of representatives of the united nations on the subject of post-war food.

Not a Relief Parley

. It should be said in that connection, Mr. Roosevelt continued, that this ‘would not be a relief conference. The war will have certain relief problems, definite line is being drawn between the two problems, | although both | & involve food. The relief tasks, now being worked out by relief organizations, concern not only the prevention of starvation and malnutrition, but the supplying of seed, agricultural implements and general. emergency matters. ‘The state department and Herbert L. Lehman, director of foreign relief and rehabilitation, are

|now talking with other nations

about a conference on relief.
