Forward Resolution to Con-
greSsmen and Senators.

Employees of the Rock Island ar
senaI have forwarded copies of a
Resolution passed ~ them in a
mass meeting list Sunday to their
congressman and senators urging
them to support he bill for the
continuance Of the United States
Employment service. Appended is
the resolution:
Whereas, The appropriation bill
before congressional committee to-
day, for the continuance of the
United States employment service,
Is in jeopardy because the same
urgent need is not apparent since
the war is over and because of OPP
position by private and fee-charg-
ing employment agencies for rea e
sons best known to themselves;
and,
Whereas, The United States en-
ployment service even in it's initial
trial has been highly efficient in
securing to the worker and en-
pIoyer alike ready aid with a min
imum Of cost to the public valua-
BILE to industry n producing max
imum of output by reduction of
labor turnover and helpful to the
government by increasing food
production. and,
Whereas, 1t was in the past a
problem of securing workers for
work and is now one of providing
work for the workers, the need be-
ling fully as great in our recon
struction period as it was in war
Now is the time that these quail
ties are mostly needed. New con
ditiOns have come and have come
to stay-that is a condition that we
all have to accept. National bud
gets will hereafter be figured in
billions. We cannot go back The
problem is one Of adjustment to
|new conditions. therefore. realiz-
ing that the United States employ
ment service stands unequivCcally
for these conditions and fully cog

Fine Pecans.

Mr.. ]. I. Hawkins of Silverstreet
left on the editors desk on Satur-
day as fine a bunch of pecans as you
would care to look at. There are
seven large we'll grown pecans on
one prong that does not look that it
is strong enough to bear the weight.
A few acres of trees fruited like
this prong would certainly produce
an abundance of nuts. What variety
we do not know, but the only fault
we could possibly find with the nuts
is that there are not more Of them.
They say that all the trees this year
are well fruited, and only if some of
US who are so fond Of trees had
planted some of this variety when
we were setting out trees in the
years gone, but it is not too late yet,
and even if you think you are too old
to live to enjoy the fruit plant them
for the benefit Of those who are to
come after. =
