STATE EMPLOYMENT AGENCIES.

to have the coming Legislature extend The OPP

Commissioner John r. McDonough. and his local
representative. John j. Bean. They have brcn

in the minds Of the masses that the State in
some way or other IS bound TO provide employ

nor the function Of any democratic government.
1t Is patcrnalism pure and simple. II has no
place in this Commonwealth or in this Nation.
1t Is an expression of Socialism, the advent Of

Employment agencies are private enterprises;
