Employers Are Urged
To Give Time Off for
Draft Registration
The District Commissioners today
urged employers to give their em
ployes sufficient time to register
under the draft as they proclaimed
the August 30 opening of draft reg
istration for men In the 18-25 age
group.
The Commissioners estimated that
approximately. 56,000 Washington
men will have to register between
August 30 and September 18.
At the same time. Prank D.
Norton, chief of the District Office,
of Selective Service Records, said
the location of registration places
will be announced within the next
10 days. The registration places
will be open from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.
on the days designated for the
various age groups.
IS on-Residents to Register.
Mr. Norton said a large number
of men are expected to register who
do not claim the District as their
legal residence. They will register
here, Mr. Norton explained, but their
cards will be sent back to their
home States.
The Commissioners urged all men
in the 18-25 age group to familiarize
themselves with the rules governing
registration and to comply with
them.
As District draft officials prepared
to ifet registration machinery in
motion, the Army reported a heavy
upsurge in voluntary enlistment
throughout the country.
Volunteers May Cut Draft Calls.
Lt. Gen. Willard S. Paul, chief
of Army personnel, held out somj
hope for draft-age men when he
said that if enough men continue
to volunteer the new draft calls
would be reduced accordingly. He I
said the number to be called the I
first month had not been deter-!
mined as yet.
"If we get enough volunteers we
probably won’t have to draft any
body,” the general told reporters.
Despite the volunteer upsurge,
draft officials are proceeding with
preparations to organize a military
manpower stockpile from which the
armed services can draw as needed
beginning around October 1.
18.000 Enrolled in Two Weeks.
Gen. Paul reported that 18.085
swapped civvies for uniforms dur
ing the first two weeks of July
compared with 32.000 in June. Of
the recruits obtained this month,
12,898 went to the Army and the
! balance to the Air Force.
He also said a total of 759 youths
of 18 had volunteered and been
taken into the Army during the
j first three days they were accepted
; under the Selective Service Act.'
: which authorizes enlistment of
youths between 18 and 19 who vol
unteer to serve one year followed
by an extended period in the re
serves. They thus become exempt
from the draft.
The Army, which also has been
concerned over a shortage of of
ficers for its expanding troop
strength, also reported that appli
cations by reserve officers for ac
tive duty were now being received
in greater numbers.
During the day Secretary of the
Army Royall said there had been a
misunderstanding about a state
ment at Fort Knox Tuesday by Gen.
Paul who was quoted as saying, the
Army might find it necessary to fur
lough a number of the new draftees
S because of a lack of accommoda
tions. "The Army will be ready to
accept all selectees as assigned
without any necessity of furlough or
other delay in actual induction,”
Mr. Royall said.
It was explained by other officials
that Gen. Paul referred to volun
teers and not inductees. However,
this does not mean that the Army
w-ill diminish its efforts to bring in
as many volunteers as possible, it
was explained.
Wholesale Price Index .
Down 12 Cents in Week
By th# Associated Prtss
NEW YORK, July 29.—The Dun
& Bradstreet wholesale food price
index dropped 12 cents this week to
$7.18 but still was 67 cents above the
corresponding week of last year.
It was the second consecutive de
cline from the record high of $7.36
for the week that ended July 13.
The index represents the sum
total of the price per pound of 31
foods in general use and is not a
cost-of-living index.
The decline for the past week was
due largely to lower prices for
grains and meats. Among items on
the downward side were corn, rye,
oats, barley, beefs, hams, bellies,
'ard, butter, cottonsed oil, beans,
steers and lambs. '•
Prices increased lor flour, wheat,
cocoa, peas, eggs, potatoes and hogs. ;
The Dun & Bradstreet daily
wholesale commodity price index
closed Tuesday at 281.45 compared
with 281.71 a week ago and 268.77 a
year ago. It covers the wholesale j
price of 30 basic commodities, with |
prices of 1930-32 used as a base of
100.

Edward F. Meyer, 94,
Dies; Sold Harness at
Griffith Stadium Site
Edward F. Meyer, 94, who once
sold equipment for horse-drawn
vehicles at the present site of Grif
fith Stadium, died yesterday at his
residence, 5203 Thirteenth street
N.W.
Mr. Meyer used to recall civil War
days around his native Frederick,
Md., when two of his brothers
served in the Union Army and one
brother joined the Confederates.
He came to Washington during
the Cleveland administration as a
Post Office employe. At the end of
the administration, he opened a
store on the present site of the ball
park and sold harnesses, bridles
and other equipment for the horse
drawn vehicles.
As automobiles pushed out the
horses, however, he retired and
cared for his wife, Mrs. Libbey Get
tings Meyer, who was in poor health.
She died about 20 years ago.
In his retirement, Mr. Meyer
taught himself Greek to aid in read
ing old copies of the New Testament.
Although he never joined a church,
he and a group of friends arould
gather and discuss religion.
After the death of his wife he
lived with three daughters. Miss
Grace Gettings Meyer, Mrs. F.
Miriam Lollo and Miss R. Alma
Meyer at the Thirteenth1 street ad

Funeral services will be held at
