MORE CLERKS ON
HAND THAN JOBS

Secretary of Labor Wilson has
issued this statement:
such available reports as are
now before me indicate that more
clerks are in Washington than are
needed. Persons in different sec
tions of the country who are con
teuiplating coming to Washington
for work, before leaving their
homes, should get renewed assur-
ance from some authorized govern
ment official In Washington that
they are needed"
The secretary also states that the
government appreciates the pat
riotic service of those who have
come to Washington.

The purpose of the club when
first organized was chiefly to slim
ulate the devotion of all the work
ers and their fellow members to the
task of winning the war Now that
the war is won. it seems well that
this club organization should con-
time and that its purposes be to
promote the welfare and happiness

and particularly'to stimulate the
devotion of it's members to COM

"By reason of the changes at the

may continue to fill a mission of
