Hoffman Sees Jail

Nelson Hoffman, a well-known
young man of the Leland section,
was in Lewiston Tuesday for the
purpose of filing his QUESTIONABLE
as one of the registrants of the
county. When at the court house
he expressed a desire to see the
county Jail, Jailer Gertje accommo-
dated him. After taking the visit
or in the main cell room, the jailer
remembered that he had some offic
ial business demanding his atten-
tion and as habit dictated locked
the jail door and went about this
business. 1t was a half hour be-
fore Hoffman's distress signs could
be heard. He had been given time
to inspect the Jail, however; consid-
cred it quite comfortable place,
but insisted that he preferred the
great outdoors of the Potlatch
plateaus.-Tribune.

Cash Basis In Clearwater

All merchants of Clearwater
county who handle foodstuffs adopt
ed a resolution Tuesday night,
pledging all food dealers to sell
foodstuffs only for cash or bankable
notes after Jan. Is. Only one free
delivery will be made each day and
the use of solicitors in the towns
and the rural districts will be dis
continued.
The meeting at which this action
took place was held at Orofino and
was promoted by Charles A. Fisher,
food administrator for the county
The primary reason for inaugural
ing this new condition among the
mercants is because it complies with
the policy of the national food ad
ministration. 1t is believed tha
the cash system will MATERIAL!
lower the prices on foodstuffs.

Labor Abundant

Secretary Wilson made the state
ment this week that there is plenty
of labor in the United States both
for industry and the army and that
the only problem now is to get
proper adjustment. He goes on to
say:
"Most of the anxiety in this
country regarding the labor ques-
tion has been a reflex of Great
Britain's experiences in the war.
Of 2O,OO0,000 persons engaged in
gainful occupations in England,
s, ,OOO, 900 were taken for the army,
leaving the labor supply Is percent
short. This necessitated withdraw
al from the army of skilled work
men in order to maintain the indus
trial life at home.
Americas situation is very diff
ferent. Of course, the draft will
interfere with industry to some ex
tent, but we have IS, 100000 work
ers, of whom approximately 500,
1000 will be taken in the first yea
of war, less than the normal mum
ber of unemployed. Our problem
then, is one of readjustment to sup
ply the demand for workers in thos
trades which are expanding rapidly
such as shipbuilding and munition
factories.
"At present there is a shortag
t of labor in some trades and a SUI
plus in others. For instance, ther
d is unemployment in the buildin
i trades. 1t is our task to make tn
e supply equal to the demand. whic
t will involve transportation of worl
e men voluntarily from one section
r another, housing them in their ne
homes and training unskilled me
when the skilled supply in any pa
ticular line of work is short.
