9 WHEELBASES
ALL OF THEM "POWER LEADERS
Si IN THEIR FIELD!
Rural and small urban commu
nities of South Carolina are being
combed during “Labor Registra
tion Month,” March 15 to April 15,
to recruit skilled and semi-skilled
labor for national defense indus
tries, Manager H. Gerard Hartzog
of the Greenwood office of the
Employment Service division of
the South Carolina Unemployment
Compensation Commission, an
nounced today.
Testing the belief that an un
tapped reservoir of workers exists
in smaller communities and agri
cultural counties of the state,
which have no full-time employ
ment service office, the employ
ment service division of the Com
mission is conducting a campaign
to register workers in McCormick
county. “Labor Registration
Month” is being conducted
throughout the Nation.
“The theory behind this phase
of labor recruitment efforts of
the employment service is that
many skills useful for defense in
dustries are ‘hidden’ behind store
counters, gasoline station pumps,
and on small farms, where they
had been driven by the depres
sion,” Manager Hartzog comment
ed.
“As defense production expands,
workers of this type that we are
able to locate will be returned to
their former skilled occupations,
and be replaced at their present
posts by others whose experience
is less valuable to defense proj
ects.”
Through its 20 established full
time offices in principal cities
throughout the state, the Employ
ment Service is constantly en
couraging the registration of all
types of workers, the Manager
pointed out.
During an interview to learn
and record the work history of
these registrants, if it is found
that they have latent or partially
developed skills, they will be given
short, “refresher” vocational
training courses to help them re
gain their former abilities.

Labor Supply In
South Carolina
With Few Exemptions, Continues
To Be Adequate For
Normal Needs.
Columbia, S. C., Mar. 24.—With
few exceptions, the labor supply
‘n South Carolina continues to be
adequate for normal needs, it was
revealed today at state head
quarters for Selective Service, de
spite the fact that 4,229 registrants
have been called for military
‘raining and service.
The information, released by
Lieut. Russell W. Nauman, state
advisor on occupational defer
ments, was received from “the
most reliable sources available,”
and revealed that the keen de
mand for construction workers
has decreased somewhat due to
the near completion of the Fort
Jackson and Camp Croft projects
in the state.
A large proportion of the con
struction workers and common
laborers employed on those proj
ects and now released were pre
viously drawn from the farms and
other seasonal occupations and
have, therefore, returned to their
usual occupations, Lieut. Nauman
explained.
In the textile industry there ap
pears to be a moderate shortage
of skilled and semi-skilled work
ers such as doffers, loom fixers,
weavers, spinners and single
needle sewing machine operators.
Most of the textile mills of the
state are operating on three shifts.
In the Charleston area, there
continues to be a shortage of
loftsmen, shipwrights and tool-
makers and therq, appear to be
few available in the state.
The training of students enroll
ed in NYA and other vocational
training schools, which consti
tutes the national defense pre
employment and refresher train
ing program, is getting under way
