EMPLOYMENT
BUREAU MAKES
GOOD SHOWING
LOCAL OFFICE HANDED ABOUT
ONE-THIRD OF ENTIRE BuSl-
NESS OF STATE FOR SIX
MONTHS PERIOD.

G. 3. Travis, director for Florida,
for the United States employment
service. has prepared an official state
ment showing the world of the sew
eral offices in this state during the
six months following the signing of
the arrnistice.
Ten thousand. three hundred and
forty applicants for work were df-
rected to employment from these
Florida offices of the United States
employment service. located at Jack
sonville, Tallahassee, Pensacola, and
Tampa and Miami.
The figures do not include the place.
ment of soldiers and sailors by COM
munity local boards, one board being
in each county of the state, which are
cooperating with the United States
employemnt service. The actual fig
ures representing their work are not
! available but it may be conservatively
estimated that their placements will
swell the figures to fully 11.oo0
Director Travis adds:
Cost Was Small.
This work was accomplished with
out cost to employers or employees
but the total cost to the government
for work done in this state by our
months since the signing of the arm
istice. of this amount $2.54o50 was
paid to agencies not directly connect
ed with employment work; so that
the total cost of placing 1900 appli-
cants for work was $14.257.56. or about
$3.50 per capita.
tIt is impossible to arrive at how
much has been saved to the people of
Florida through the fundamentally
of the employment Service during the
past six months. If the work had been
done by private agencies some idea
of the cost can be ascertained when
t 1t is known that the private employ
ment agencies not only charge fees
for placements, but usually charge a
fee of 81 for each registrant who ap-
plies for work. In addition to this. a
charge of from So up is made when

BIG QUANTITY OF
CIDER IS SEIZED
AT TALLAHASSEE

Twenty-Five 16-gallon kegs of con-
coction described in the state chem
lists report as hydro alcoholic solu-
ton of gulcoae largely, substituted
and shipped in violation of the inter-
state and state pure food laws as
apple cider, has been seized at ITALIA
hassee by the sheriff of Leon county
and will be turned over to the u. s.
authorities, according to information
received here yesterday.
The seizure was made at the place
of business of the Capital City Gro
Gerry Co., at Tallahassee and it is
shown to have been shipped from the
National Fruit Products Co., of Mem
phis, Tenn. 1t is alleged to have been
adulterated and misbranded.

at cost of s14,257 would have been

through private employment agencies
Saving to People.
1.-THE foregoing is intended to dem
onstrate the saving to the people
through the elimination of fee charg-
ing. A further saving is realized
through the methods used. The Uni
ted States employment service strives
to keep a man on the job and only
seeks employment for the jobless man.
In other words, it tries to prevent
labor turnover. On the other hand, it
is seen that the private agency, whose
existence depends on fees, is not In
terested in the prevention of labor
turnover but encourages it. As fire.
quent labor turnover is one of the
most serious obstacles to industry,
the usefulness of the United States
employment service in preventing this
condition. should appeal to all en-

ployers. We are pleased to state that
through the activity of the United
States employment service. the pri-
vate agencies in this state have been
almost eliminated, only one or two
in Jacksonville and Tampa remaining
and these are doing a very limited
amount of business"
Mr.. McNeir. local examiner for the
U. S. employment service. stated that
an average of 324 placements per
month were made by this office and
among this number there are about
III service men who were placed.
Much good work is still to be done by
the service during the reconstruction
period.
1t appears that the local office
handled almost a third of the business
of the entire state.
