All employment agencies in New York City were warned yesterday by Paul Moss, License Commissioner, that they would be held to strict compliance with the new State law forbidding racial and religious discrimination in the hiring of workers for defense jobs.
Mr. Moss acted after he had been asked by Mayor LaGuardia to notify the agencies that they could not legally accept job orders containing discriminatory specifications from employers in defense industries.
