Hugo V. Koch of st. Paul, state
director of the United States Employ

World office. Mr.. Koch is an old time
union labor man and we spent a happy
hour with him talking shop of the old
days in the labor movement. He is
making good as director of the en-

Mr:AKoch was greatly pleased at the
cooperation shown by the employers
with the employment bureau and said
that "Duluth's success is a result of
( the Federal employment bureau, the
employers, and the soldiers and sail

the men out of employment. Where
I expected to find 200 to $50 soldiers
and sailors looking for positions,
find that there are less than fifty"

"Another question which confronts
the employers of the cities, is the fact
that many of the soldiers and sailors
naturally drift to the cities and seek
employment there. These must be
taken care of, temporari'. at least.
Many Of them will return to the small
towns and the farms as the spring and
summer advances. BY that time the
worst part of the problem will have
