than the scare that their factories
will not be running in six months.
In this city the Pennsylvania Rail-
road Company is now employing as
many men from week to wook as it
ever has in the war period. The
number employed by this company
each week ranges from SO TO rs, or
Whereabouts. The number employed
last week was 73, showing that the
company needs help in spite of the
repeated calls for hard times. These
73 men actually employed were Sc
lected from a possible 122 who made
application, which indicates that
the company is employing a large
percentage of those wo make ap-
plication.
On the other hand. 122 applica-
tions is not a large number in one
week for such a large concern.
which clearly indicates that labor is
not much available, and that en-
ployes are satisfied not to worry
about the future of their positions.
The employees recently taken on by
the Pennsylvania company seem to
be of a better type. than is usually

is small There Can be no possible
