Skilled Workers Placement Aimed in Draft Washington () Draft officials said today that local selective service boards may undertake to place in defense industries rather than in the Army skilled unemployed men who register for military service. While emphasizing that no formal instructions to that effect have been decided upon, they said every effort would be made to keep in view the needs of essential industries when men are called for their year of training. Thus in addition to granting deferments for men already in essential employments efforts may be made to obtain defense work for those unemployed whose skills so qualify them.

At the same time it was brought out that industrial deferment cases will be reviewed every six months and men whose work ceases to fall within the essential classification will then be considered eligible for military service. Another proposal to avoid disruption of normal civilian pursuits would avoid calling out agricultural workers at a time when they were needed for harvesting or planting crops.

Plfd. 6-0010 Operates One Lever This was announced today by County Clerk Henry G. Nulton. Mr. Nulton pointed out that if the voter desires to favor the presidential and vicepresidehtial nominees of any one party, all he will have to do is pull down a lever marked "Presidential electors for" under the name of the candidates for whom he is voting.

If, on the other hand, the. voter wishes to split his vote for electors he may write his choice of electors on stickers which will be provided in the first column of the voting machine. At the left of the machine there will be a card naming all the electors of the six national parties. Election officials 19 Union County, however, do not encourage the splitting of vote on electors, because the officials say that in doing so a voter usually nullifies his desires. Will Comply with Law However, since the New Jersey election law requires that voters be allowed to split their votes, Union County is making provisions to comply with the law.

This peculiar voting machine problem prevails in only three counties of the state Union, Essex and Bergen the only counties to date in which voting machines are used. In Bergen County, it is said, to vote for a presidential and vice-presidential candidate, the voter pulls down one lever which will register a vote for all 16 electors supporting the candidates of the party the voter has decided to support In Essex County, arrangements have been made to place the names of all the electors in the candidates' columns on the voting machine. To vote for the presidential and vice-presidential candidates of any party, the voter, it is explained, must pull down 16 levers for the 16 electors supporting, his choice.
