MenIess labs Soon,
Says Secretary wilson

WASHINGTON. June 11.-Menless
jobs instead OF jobless men in the
very immediate future throughout the
United States were predicted by Sec
rotary OF Labor Wilson in sizing up
the labor outlook. in a statement to-
day. The bumper wheat crop. re.
yival of the iron trade with the con,
sequent stimulation of mining and
other associated industries, and con
tinued activity in the textile business,
are given by Wilson as his reasons for
prophesying prosperity with lots Of
work.
Specific requests for more than So
900 men TO help harvest bumper crops
have already reached the department
OF labor. Missouri alone has asked
for 10000 men. How TO get them
west is the problem AS a solution,
Secretary Wilson Is planning TO nego.
tiate with the railroads for special
excursions TO the wheat belt from
eastern cities where the labor might
be obtained
"Such a plan would give thousands
OF men In the east a chance TO get d
rural vacation and make money while
taking IT," said Secretary Wilson. 1T
would also effectually solve the prob
lem Of how 10 get men 10 harvest tne

vest helpers.

.troit who would jump at the chance
of a good farm job If they could be
sure OF the proper treatment
Though there are few manufactur-
ing plants which are running fun
time, Mr. Whirl believes that the sit
uation is bound TO improve very soon.
In January the Employers associa-
ton bureau found jobs for l,S44 men,
and in February for 1856, breaking
the record OF former years. In March

In May, Sits, a lower May figure
than for any year since 1911. II the
number sent 10 the Ford Motor Co
in 1912 and 1913 is not considered.
however, the May, 1914, total is above
normal
The dullness has worked TO the
advantage OF the men in two ways,
said Mr. Whirl. 1T has made them
more careful of their jobs and has
caused them to do better work and
II has brought them better treatment
from their bosses The superinten-
dents and foremen have realized, or
ought TO have realized, that the stu
alton demanded that they get better
work from their men. and that the
way to get II Is through encourage
ment and cooperation, not through
abuse and driving They must be
treated like men, not like cattle"
The Employers association twill try
70 cooperate with the state employ
ment bureaus in the wheat selt, and
with the railroads, in an attempt to
effect an arrangement by which De-
troit labor may find Jobs in the har-
vest fields.

Wages range from 81 day, with
