Where Recruiting
Would Handicap
Busy Factories
Wyoming Valley Plants Short
handed and Fear Greater
Shortage

Allentown, PENN, April 5.
Every one is asking how the great
plants of this district
will be able TO spare large body OF
should they be called to the
front. Some plants have been operat-
ing with 70 per cent OF their usual
force, notwithstanding the fact that
they had record orders TO handle. En-
ployers feel that this will be one Of
the most difficult problems to solve in
connection with the entrance Of the
United States into the European war.
With the great plants bidding high
prices for labor and finding it difficult
to obtain an adequate supply, the pos
sible withdrawal of competent workers
is looked upon with forebodings. This
is not a question OF patriotism, Blu.
merely Of economics. and should the
enlistments result in a sharp decline
IN the operating efficiency Of some Of
the great industrial establishments. the
chances are that the manufacturers
will take the matter up with the gov
eminent officers. so that the situation
may be handled for the best interests
Of all concerned.
To Expedite Government Work
There never was a time wheA the
laborer could sell his services at a
higher price. But. like every other
seller, he is no. eager to make bar
gain until he can do so on basis
most advantageous to himself. The
situation is full cf interesting posi-
bilities, but tire difficulties have been
increased by the striking developments
which followed President Wilson's APP
peal TO Congress. lnasmuch as many
Of the large plants of the Wyoming
Valley ere suffering from a shortage
Of help. L IS clear that further re-
duction in working forces may give q
new turn 10 The high cost OF living
discussion and the questions connect
ed with i. H. is recognized every
where that the extraordinary condi-
tons attending the war in Europe and
the abnormal demand for merchandise
which these conditions have created
will not continue indefinitely. All en-
ployers are figuring on the Labor item
as being the unknown quantity" Of
most importance. 1t is only a question
Of supply and demand. with the prob
ability that TIE supply Of labor will
be materially decreased within the
next few weeks. But everything will
be done 70 help the government and
20 expedite all government worG.
Other Problems
The high cost Of material and the
continuing freight blockade are the
two other problems Of vital importance
in this valley. The railroads are doing
the best they can TO relieve the con-
gestion, but with the development OF
the submarine warfare the problem
takes in the steamship companies as
we'll as the rail carriers. Amusing
stories are being told as TO the zig-zag
shipment Of freight from the Pitts
burgh district TO the great plants Of
