Tarleton Campus
Dean J. Thomas Davis has solv-
eu the labor shortage at placing
sheep from the college farm on
the campus lawns. As a result,

the same time, cheap food is being
produced for the college dining
hall.

Sometimes when you’ve a long distance call to a
war-busy place, the operator will say —
“Please limit your call to five minutes. Others are
waiting.”
This doesn’t happen all the time, because many long
distance calls go through about as usual.
But whenever we have had to ask that calls be kqpt
to five minutes, there has been a fine spirit of co-
operation from the public.
We want to say thanks for that. Your help and
iderstending count double these days.
Do not Change your
Work Regulations
Any employers engaged in an
essential activity may hire any
new employee who for the pre-
ceding thirty days was not en-
gaged in an essential activity.
An employer may not hire for
work in any work not essential
any new employee who for the
preceding thirty day period was
not engaged in an essential activ-
ity at a higher wage or salary
rate than the worker received at
his last job.
Employers engaged in an essen-
tial activity may hire new em-
ployees who have been engaged
in other essential activities with-
out regard to wage rate only if
the worker presents a statement
of availability issued by the
worker’s last employer or by the
War Manpower Commission.
A worker must first apply to
his employer for a statement of
availability and if the employer
refuses or is prohibited from is-
suing it, the worker may then re-
quest a statement of availability
from the United States Employ-
ment Service office of the War
Man Power Commission.
An employer engaged in an es-
sential activity must issue a
worker whenever lie discharges
statement of availability to a
the worker, or lays off the work-
er for an indefinite period or for
seven days or more; or whenever
the worker can establish that he
is not being used at liis highest
skill, or is not being employed
full time. The WMC may issue a
statement of availability to a.
worker when it is convinced that
the action would be in the best in-
terest of the war effort. No state-
ment of availability may be is-
sued solely on the ground that the
worker’s wage or salary is sub-
stantially less than that prevail-
ing in the locality for similar
work.
The statement of availability
must contain the worker’s name,
his Social Security number, if
any, the name and address of the
issuing employer or the WMC of-
fice and officer and the statement
that this employee is available
for work in an essential activity.
No other information may be
placed on the statement of avail-
ability by an employer.
Workers are prohibited under
terms of the Regional Stabiliza-
tion Plan from accepting work
from an employer, if such em-
ployment is prohibited by the
plan. Either worker or employ-
er may appeal a decision by the
USES on an application for-a
statement of availability. Pen-
alties may involve $1000 fine.—

ham, from War Manpower Com-
mission.

• Folks, meet Bud. He’s American. He’s tough. That shiner on hit left f
eye—the one calling for about forty points worth of porterhouse—to
him is just an invitation to get tougher.
But there's nothing mean about Bud. A favorite with everybody in his
block, he fights only when somebody starts pushing him around. He's
tough in spirit and fiber. That's typically American. A shiner was hung
on our national left eye late In 1941—'and just look what our boys
are doing about il now because they're tough. Fitted by planning and
training they're mastering the toughest job in the world I
Planning and training fitted American railroads for war. They have
that spirit and fiber, too. That's why they are able to handle the
toughest transportation job in history. They need a lot more equip-
ment, but the fighting fronts have first call,so the railroads—being Amer-
ican—buckle down and make the best possible use of what they have;
** Planning, however, must go on. And a financial backlog must be
accumulated for carrying out those plans wlTen Victory has been won;
That’s when ROCK ISLAND'S Program of Planned Progress will resume
its forward march; will meet the increased transportation demands
of peacetime tomorrow—and provide jobs for thousands of American
boys as they step out of uniform.
As yesterday—and today —so tomorrow ROCK ISLAND’S sole pur»
pose is to provide the finest in transportation.
