WIND BLOWS WITH WHEEL, BUT OTHER
 INDIAN IS CAUGHT

Jim Wind, like the elusive zephyrs for which he is named, was too fast for any man, white or black, and with ordinary legs, to overtake. Also there were visions of jail bars and other unpleasant things that urged him on the wings of the wind to greater speed.
 Wind is an Indian boy. In com pany with another Indian boy, San tiago Diver, both belonging at the Indian school, they are alleged to have appropriated two bicycles resting in front of the Stearns bar Der shop in the Hotel Adams yes terday and which seemed to have no owners.
 Hardly had they left the curb with the bicycles when an indie- nant and protesting negro man rushed out of the barber shop and started in pursuit down Central avenue. It was brief chase IS far as Oliver was concerned. but Wind easily faded away in the distance.
 The negro took Oliver and bicycle to police headquarters where he made charge that the boy had stolen the wheel and that the bi. cycle was his property.

 JOBS, |S ORDER
Most Drastic Instructions
 That Ever Were Issued In County Caused By Alarm
 ing Shortage of Labor

Because of present million and A half labor shortage, both skilled and unskilled. in war industries with an increased army coming, Nathan A. Smyth, assistant director general of the United States Employment Service, is today mailing the most drastic in structionS ever issued in this country to all community labor boards in- structing them to prepare and publish in every city in the country lists of non- essential positions now held by men that could be filled by allotment.
 The result will be that men failing or refusing to get out of such positions of their own accord and take up es- sential work will be looked upon as slackers. The order is intended to force the hand of both non-essential labor and employers thereof. Lists will probably include clerks and office help, ticket sellers of all kinds, at- tendants and similar occupations.
 Put Women In
 This is in line with Crowder's work or fight order with instructions already issued for the placing of women in in dustry, with the order of the war in- dustries board stopping unnecessary construction, with action limiting banl loans and the taking of raw materials from essential industries. Smyth'. order may ultimately become the mos drastic of all, for community labU boards will insist that no man shal occupy position which a woman cal | fill. This nation must work or fight and the order is made necessary be cause employers of non- essential labo have in many cases Tailed to meet tn, issue squarely. The lines will be drawI together from day to day as tn various occupations are combed fo
