A prosperity tale was published
last week in the Superior department
Of the morning paper regarding the

In an interview with Mr. Scoon Of
the free employment office the Tri-
bune stated that Mr.. Scoon had said
that there was more work than men.
At this time there was large num-
ber of men around the employment
office looking for jobs.
Mr.. Scoon had made the statement
that the amount of work in Superior
is normal. A large amount of con-
struction work is being done such, as
street paving and building. The Nor
NAL school work is taking care of
a; number of men, but with all Of this
they:swere unable to absorb the un-
employed men in the city,. The. causes
given for; the large number of men
out of work in the city. is the slack
ness Of business in the: territory ad-
jacent to Superior. ;>s&#:s
In a statement to: representative
of The Labor World, Mr.. Scoon esti-
mates the number Of daily applicants
for jobs at close to 800. This J,
in addition to these who apply at
the private agencies and includes but
a portion Of those at the Mission.
The number of men asking for.
meals from house to house has how
ever appreciably decreased during the

H. F. Burt of the mission stated
that conditions of unempoyment as
he sees them are worse now than a
