More than 10,000 workers have
been supplied to vital war industries
during the last six months by the
National Youth Administration War
Production Training Program in six
southeastern states and more than
1,000 NYA trained youths have en
tered the armed forces. The Savan
nah NYA War Production Training
Center during the last year trained
more than 1,000 boys and girls. This
announcement was made by Bois
feuillet Jones, Regional Youth Ad
ministrator, in his most recent re
port on NYA operations. This par
ticular region is composed of the
following states: Alabam, Georgia,
Florida, South Carolina, Tennessee,
and Mississippi. Approximately 2,-
500 of the 10,000 male and female
workers are employed in shipyards
at Charleston, Savannah, Mobile,
Pascagoula and Norfolk and other
southern ports. The next largest
group has gone into the aircraft and
engine plants. Other industries
which scores of NYA trained work
ers are helping to man are ordnance
and accessories, textile, rayon, lea
ther and allied products, communi
cations, transportation and public fa
cilities. Included in these groups
| are private industries which hold
war contracts, public industries and
civilian services of the armed forces.
The Savannah NYA War Produc
tion Center is training youths, boys
and girls, single or married', of the
! 16-24 age levels, for a period of
। from one to three months. The four
| shops available for trainees at this
Center includes machinery, sKeet
■ metal work, auto mechanics and
welding. The youth receives this
training free plus his board . and
spending money of SIO.BO w
month. While being trained they
are actually producing goods for war
agencies.
Many of the Montgomery County
boys and girls have recently gone to
Savannah for training at the NYA
Way Production Center there. This
is not only a worthwhile opportunity
for them to learn a trade and to
make a good salary, but it is a chal
lenge to everyone to be able to work
to win the war.

Washington, Jan. 18.—Petroleum
Administrator Harold L. Ickes and
Acting Price Administrator John
Hamm tonight ordered a 40 per cent
cut in fuel oil rations for nonlheat
ing purposes for commercial, indus
trial and governmental consumers
in the seventeen eastern states and
the District of Columbia.
Officials said the order will affect
chiefly industrial users of the heavi
est type oils which already are
scarce. Thes oils are used in in
dustrial machines such as dynamos.
The order is effective for the first
three months of 1943.
It affects all consumers in the
three-month fuel oil ration for uses
other than heating and hot water
purposes exceeds 9,000 gallons.
It exempts, however, certain class
es of fuel oil users, including public
communications services, newspa
pers, radio, telephone and telegraph
systems, hospitals, transportation
services, water and supply and sani
tation systems, food preservation
and packing plants, and industrial
plants engaged in the manufacture
of various essential materials and
other war work.
The order does not affect home
owners and other consumers who
I use fuel oil for heating, hot water,
domestic cooking and lighting pur
poses. *
Signature of the order by Hamm
1 revealed that Ration Chief Leon
! Henderson no longer is in office as
I price administrator.
I Officials said he ceased active
, work January 15.
The two agencies said the order
was another in a series of steps
taken to distribute limited supplies
‘ at fuel oil on the east coast as equi
-1 tably as possible.
A Previous steps included a 10 per
j cent reduction in fuel oil rations to
, home owners, a 25 per cent reduc
, tion in rations to commercial build
ings, a 25% cut in the value of “A,”
:‘B,” and “C” gasoline coupons, and
a ban on pleasure driving.
l ' The order expires April 1. Wheth-
J er it is extended after that date and
