NEW YORK PAPER
BOOSTS GEM STATE
SAYS 5000 EXTRA JOBS ARE
AWAITING MEN-INFORMA-
TiON DOUBTFUL

Surplus jobs for 5000 men are
waiting in Idaho for those who want
work, according to an article IN the
New York Evening Sun for March 20.
The article goes on to state that such
was the information received from
Idaho although no definite source in
the state is indicated
Employment offices here have
heard nothing of any such statement,
and although it is possible that there
may be slight surplus of jobs dur
ing the next few weeks, the influx OF
Idaho's returning fighters will rapidly
take care of all these, says the States
man.
Governor Davis says that while Ida
no will have no trouble in supplying
work for her returning soldiers and
sailors, it is very doubtful if there VIII
be any demand for labor which can
not be filled locally. Surely there
will be no demand for some time to
come for 5000 men to supply labor
demands here, and according to him,
no such report was sent out from any
of the state offices with his knowl-
edge. The State Council of Defense
also disclaims all knowledge of such
report through Joseph Hansen, IT'S
secretary
