THIEVES ARE ACTIVE
Three ROhberies in Three Days, One
Nettinu Bio Haul

The Green novelty store on East
Pine was robbed twice last week,
soldiers being the offenders in each
on Wednesday evening. A soldier
with whom the proprietor, Mrs. Iau-
rettn Green, had slight acquaint-
ance, came in TO bid her, goodbye
before leaving with his unit As he
passed out, leaving Mr.. and Mrs.
Green in their room at the back of
the store, he helped himself to some
rings and watches in showcase.
Their absence was noted almost ai
once by Mrs. Green, and she notified
the camp authorities, with the result
that the young man was arrested on
the train not far out Of Deming and
brought hack to answer 10 the charge
against him. The stolen property
was found on his person and he con-
fessed his guilt.
FRIDAY nlgil anotllef ana more
serou robbery occurred. Mrs. Green
had carelessly left her purse, con-
tanning over 5000 in currency, about
the same amount in notes, and some
coins and iewelry making the total
contents about $1,000 in value, lying
behind the cash register, which
stands on the end of a showcase
near the door. Two soldiers were
standing in front Of the register
when third entered and called Mrs.
Green to the rear Of the store. She
suspected something from his man
ner and asked him to leave the store,
which he did. In the meantime the
two soldiers in the front had dis
appeared, and Immediately afterwOrd
Mrs. Green notified that her purse
was missing. A boy in the employ

EMPLOYMENT BUREAU TO MOVE
Expected to Occupy New Home on
Silver In Few DaVs

The federal employment bureau is
getting ready to move into its new
quarters at 2lO S. Silver avenue and
will probably be established there
the first of next week. l.. Q. Taylor,
head of the bureau, expected to be
moved last Tuesday, but encountered
some delay and put the move off till
a more convenient time. Since the
departure Of the 34th division So
many men formerly employed al the
camp are out of work that the bureau
has been very busy attending to the
flood Of applications for work. This
would be good time, it might be
suggested here, for anyone in Dem
ing needing carpenter work done to
have il attended TO, thereby serving
two purposes, their own and the gov
ernment's as well, for Uncle Sam
will want the men when he wants
them and they viii be few and far
between around this place unless
they can be kept employed in the
meantime.
Labor Scout S. J. Smith is getting
up a bunch Of men for work in the
Dupont powder works at Nashville
Tenn, and one shipment Of men went
to that place yesterday, another be-
ing expected to leave today. MF

PRIVATE CONCERNS MUST
USE U. s. LABOR BUREAUS
Forbidden 10 Recruit Own Labor
Where More Than 100 EN-
plOyes Are Used


Santa Fe, Aug. 20.-''There must
be no recruiting Of labor by private
enterprises, when such enterprises
employ 100 or more laborers, nor
even directly By the industries which
are engaged in war production, when
such Industries carry 100 or more
employees" said j. II. Wagner, fed
eral state director of the United
States Public reserve in New Mex
leo. "li all employers will list their
needs in labor, and oil the workers
will list their qualifications, the work
of the government will be greatly
simpliiied," Mr.. Wagner added.
With alEmst million unskiled
laborers still imperatively needed BY
the government, men able TO work
no longer can stay out Of productive
work and lay claim to respectability,
much less TO patriotism. every
man who does not engage in product
i've work of some kind, to help his
country, is either an invalid in mind
or body, or he is vag," said D. A.
Macpherson, federal state director of
the L. S. employment service. That
is strong statement, but it is the
view Of the I. S. government, and the
view is amply justified by the Sc
riousness Of conditions.
Business as usual was a good
phrase in the early days of the war,
but il is no longer applicable in any
sense. II has been proved that labor
is not available to furnish full crews
for all the government enterprises
and al the same time leave the non
essential industries. running full time.
It is inevitable, therefore, that some
Of the least useful of the non-es-
sential industries must gradually
reduce forces until finally the plants
will stop II the non essential en-
terpriSes all are allowed to continue
our military and naval forces cannot
be adequately supplied. The Amer.
lean people are already united in The
decision Of the government to sup
ply our fighting boys first.
The important work Of recruiting
laborers from the non essential in.
dustfies is entrusted to the com
immunity war lubor boards, one Of
which has been appointed for eacl
county in New Mexico. The matter
or priorities as TO the different lines
Of industry will be decided by tn,
national war industries board al
