BUSINESS MEN :.
ASKED TO ENLIST
FOREARM WORK
About 1000 Needed in vi
cinity; Farmers Will be
Glad Of Help for one Day

Conditions in the country make it
necessary to bring the labor situation
nearer to the people of this and all
surrounding communities. The I'M
usually large crop this year necessi-
tates a goodly number of men. Men
are scarce, and at the present time, at
least a dozen farmers are in need OF
help.
Paul johnson, Of the First State
Fbank in this city, has been appointed
Labor Agent for East Grand Forks
and is endeavoring to the best of his
ability, to decrease the shortage of
help. Word from Crookston states.
that the business men of that city are
volunteering in large number for farm
work. Mr.. johnson requests the busl-
ness men and any laboring man, who
might be able to assist for even a few
days, to-hand in his name. and in this
way help,to lessen the labor shortage
which seems to exist in the entire
northwest.
Farmers in the community are re-
quested to notify Paul Johnson, OF
any labor shortage iand he will place
the men whom he has been able to .se-
cure. r. II. Vanscoik, county agent,
suggests letting the old men and
women do the work in town, wherever
possible, during the harvest season,
and in this way enable soRe OF the
able bodied men to get out into the
fields.
The harvest season IL beginning.
The crop this year promises to be a
large one. Unless there is plenty OF
food this winter. the living condittors
of the people In this country are not
going t be the best. Mr.. johnson will
be glad to give any further advice on
matter. w 4

ABILITY TO KEEP AUTO
SERVICE GOING PROBLEM

what are automobile owners go
ing to got in the way OF service when
the dealers from whom they bought
their cars can get no more cars TO
Hcll during the war period? VIII
dealers he able 10 sustain their busi-
n ess profitably without tho support
Of commissions on new-car sales7
VIII war needs permit the uninter-
rupted manufacture OF parts for
motor car repairs7
Now that passenger car produo-
ton In being greatly reduced for the
duration Of the war, and In many
cases Of late is being entirely sus-
pended, these questions arc daily 10
coming more prominent In the minds
OF automobile owners. Dealers
themselves are quite conscious Of
their obligations to their customers
and are bending every effort toward
satisfactory solution OF the prob
loms that confront them.
At n recent conference OF Frank
lin dealers at tho factory at Syra-
cuse. N. Y. attended by men from
all parts Of tho United States. ways
and means were discussed whereby a
constructive wartime business poll
Icy could be followed. especially In
Its relation to the Franklin Com
pany'a decision made late in August
10 turn over It's facilities to 100 per
cent war work.
This conference, the first OF It's
kind In tho country. reflected a de-
clded spirit OF optimism as to the
dealers ability to maintain his estab-
llshment. II was brought out that
automobile owners could be a con-
siderable factor in the readjustment,
by promoting, through Judicious use
OF their cars and by personal atten-
tIon to upkeep. a considerable con-
servation OF labor and materials.
Tho trade that automobile owners
would be able to give the dealer In
supplies and accessories was also
regarded as an important line OF co.
operation In carrying tho dealers
necessary overhead.
The Franklin meeting was ad-
dressed by E. Il. Peakc, Secretary OF
the National Automobile Dealers as
sociation, who brought out the fact
that his contact with officials In
Washington convinced him that the
authorities recognized tho place the
automobile holds in American life
and are anxious to hinder as little
as possible the continuation of auto
mobile use for utility purposes es-
pecially. He believes that both ma
terial and labor will be allowed for

WOMEN RED CROSS DRIVERS
STUDY MOTOR CAR DETAILS

Tho army requires OF It's motor
truck and motor drivers that they
understand not only the fine points
of handling car, but the fine points
OF mechanical construction and oper-
alton as well.
Tho women drivers Of the Red
Cross motor corps at Newark. n. J.,
have decided that they should be no
less proficient than the men in active
service.
Accordingly, In classes, they are
attending a series OF twelve lectures
on motor car construction and me-
chanical operation. A stripped
chassis is before each class and an
instructor goes into minute details
regarding the various parts. In all,
twelve such lectures are given. When
they have been finished, a written
examination is held, and on tho av-
erage OF each student taking the ex-
animation. OF ability is issued.
The first class completed its
course few weeks ago Md another
has entered upon its course. Glasses
are held In the building OF the Bon
nell Motor Car company Newark
dealers for Dodge Brothers, and a
Dodge Brothers chassis Is the sub
ject of study.
