He demanded they continue the

Veterans Meet Today...
Instructions concerning their
part in the War Loan Drive will be
given campus veterans at a meet-
ing of the Veterans Organization
at 7:30 p.m. EWT (6:30 p.m. CWT)
today, in Lane Hall, John Crispin,
president, announced yesterday.
Forsythe at Meeting - .
Dr. Warren E. Forsythe, Health
Service Director, left for Minneapo-
lis, Minn. yesterday to attend a two-
day meeting of the American Asso-
ciation of Student Health Service.
Health problems of students, es-
pecially of returning veterans, will
be discussed at the meeting, which
is regional rather than national this
year.
With the Willow Run plant's pro-
duction stoppage, "Ann Arbor's war-
time labor shortage is finally licked,"
Lawrence Hamberg, director of the
local United States Employment Ser-
vice, said yesterday.
"Although there are still essen-
tial war production jobs available
in Ann Arbor, the expected influx
of 800 to 1,000 bomber plant work-
ers should put the local labor situ-
ation under control," he pointed
cut.
Correct Mock
McetimngReport
Corrections in the report on the
mock United Nations confereice have
been pointed out by members of the
Post-War Council.
The student representative of Rus-
sia registered the dissenting vote on
the adoption of the revised Dum-
barton Oaks charter, the council said,
rather than on the question of send-
ing the charter to the American dele-
gation in San Francisco as previously
stated. Vote on the latter .question
was unanimous.
Russia refused to accept the char-
ter, the council explained, because
of a provision made by the student
delegates that a unanimous vote of
the Big Five would not be required
to determine action against an ag-
gressor. The change, it was stated,
would deprive Russia of the veto
power given to her in the Yalta
agreements. The delegates agreed
that merely a 314 majority vote would
be necessary.
"The main problem of today's war
production," Hamberg explained, "is
labor mobility - shifting workers
from plants like Willow Run to other
manufacturing centers."
Laborers must remember that the
war is not yet won, he said, "there
are still plenty of essential jobs in
southern Michigan towns and cities."
Hamberg revealed that the bomber
plant is laying off workers at the
rate of more than 600 per day.
"Factories in this area, supplying
the Willow Run plant, have not been
too hard hit by the production cut,
although some plants have gone on
a 40-hour work week," he continued.
Regarding reconversion plans of
local plants, llamberg stated that
"most of the factories in this area
are devoting some time to post-war
change-over plans."
"For the time being, however, the
WMC considers it wise to continue
civilian production planning on a
limited scale," he added.
