Tobin's recruiting staff from Pueblo this week, ac- cording to Commanding Of- ficer 1st Lt. John P. Kar- pen. "We've enjoyed working with the people here and are proud of tho way they arc- responding to the army call. We're going to live and be happy together. We hope this attitude will bring happi- ness to future generations," stated Lieutenant Karpen. The enlistment staff in- cluded 1st Lt. Roy Hirano, Master Sgt. Ichiro Nishida, and Tech. Sgt. George Ichi- kawa. The personnel of the recruiting staff: Staff Sgt. Robert Green, Sgt. Charles Ford, and Pvt. Mel- vin McGrath. SURPLUS CLOTHING PRICES ARE LISTED All center workers will be able to requisition and pay for surplus clothing until Dec. 31 under an order issued by James G, Lindley, project director. The new order goes into effect Monday and the loan of clothing to outdoor work ends today. The types of clothing offered and prices are as follows: Wool breeches $1.50 Cotton breeches 1.00 Cotton coats .50 Wool pea jackets 3.00 Jerkins 1.00 Wool leg wraps .10 Wool mittens .30 Cotton pants 1.00 Blue denim pants .75 Wool windbreakers 1.50 With the exception of cotton coats, only one ar- ticle of each type may be requisitioned by an indi- vidual. A worker may order two cotton coats. Requisition forms will be distributed to division heads Monday and clothing may be obtained from Tsune- jiro Tanaka, clothing fore- man, in Warehouse 12. Evacuees need not pay cash for clothing but may have the value of the req- uisition deducted from their October, November, and De- cember clothing allowances. Garments loaned after Oct. 21 may be returned by workers and no charge will be made. If the items are not returned by Dec. 28, it will be assumed that workers wish to keep them and they will be charged. MOORE CALLS LATE COMERS Those who have not been interviewed for clothing allowance are urged to re- port to the community wel- fare division in the re- ception hall Monday, ac- cording to John J. Moore, counselor and head of the public welfare division. Clothing grants will not be allowed if interviews are not completed, he added. CHECKS TO PAY WORKERS Future payments to work- ers will be made in check form, stated Principal Fis- cal Accountant T. Read Han- son today. The absence of many evacuees from the proj- ect makes cash payments difficult, he said. The process of unclaimcd money being returned to the US treasury, another vouch- er issued, and checks for- warded to those away from the center causes much de- lay. September workers are urged to call for their pay at the engineers' building by the front gate immediate- ly. BLACKOUT PLANS MADE Preparations for Monday's 9 to 9:30 p.m. blackout were today being rushed to completion under the gui- dance of Director James G. Lindley and Police Chief H. M. Tomlinson. A two-minute blast from the guard tower sirens will sound the alarm and a se- ries of short blasts will signal the end. Lights must be out and everyone under cover within five minutes after the alarm is sounded. The block warden will go into build- ings in which lights are still burning and switch them off. The block warden will be responsible for the ex- tinguishing of all lights in his block. continued on page 2
