MAI. BURGESON
JOB COMM TEE
Selected as the Ell Paso
Representative on
National Body.

Maj. r F. Burgess, Of FL Paso, Texas.
it is announced today by Col Arthur
Wood. assistant to the secretary OF
war. and charged with the task Of
finding employment for exservice men,
{ has been appointed as the FL Paso rep
lresentative Of the national advisory
committee The function Of this COM
mittee is to bring exsoldiers and sail
irs into contact with the kind Of Jobs
that they are fitted for. and desire to
obtain. It will endeavor in every case
to put men where their military train
ing and their previous experience will
best fit him.
Careful attention" saws Col. Woods.
will have to be paid to the fact that
the men who are coming back from
the military and naval service feel
that they are physically and mentally
more valuable than they were before.
They are therefore expecting higher
pay and better opportunities in the
work that they are trying to obtain.
To some persons this has seemed an
unfortunate attitude on the part of
the soldiers. but most employers are
OF the opinion that It is a healthy
sign because il will tend TO the speedy
readjustment and rapid promotion of
the men who are now coming back TO
civilian life"
Col Woods also reports that the en-
ployment problem is rapidly approach
ing normal proportions. Our greatest
problem now" he says. seems to be
less that Of finding jobs for soldiers |
than Of getting the soldier in connec-
ton with the job. Practically all en- |
ployers have stated, and are now re- |
cording themselves officially TO that l
effect, that they will gladly take back 4
their old men. From what we learn, 1
further, they are taking them back
at prevailing wages, and not at the /
same pay they received before the
war. In many cases we have heard /
that employers are giving them full
credit for time spent in the service,
seniority in the business,
company insurance benefits. and the
like"

WHAT CREEL'S PUBLICITY
 COSTS THE DEAR PEOPLE

The committee on public informa- tion, headed by George Greet, cost the government about $6,600,000 on the face of it's chaotic records, according to official reports now before Congress which say the committees affairs can not be wound up for six months be- cause of the confusion.
 Chairman Creel and other officials of the committee are charged with gross negligence in handling the gov ernment's funds in a report by E. K. Ellsworth, of the council of national defense, appointed to liquidate the committees affairs.
 The committee issued hundreds of checks for individual expenses far in excess of the $1,00O maximum limit fixed by Congress, the report says. They ranged, it adds, from $100 to $500,000. MT. Ellsworth said he was refusing to pay some accounts ap- proved by Chairman Creel.
 MT. Ellsworth said he found a bal ance of about $1,500,000 left out of the $5,650, ,000 from President Wilson's special war fund and $1 ,250, 900 pro- vided by Congress, included in the committees assets. Unpaid bills ag- gregated several hundred thousands of dollars and were still in the com mittee's files, he said, some of them for many months not acted upon. There were also checks and money or ders payable to the committee aggre- gating $76,000 dated last spring upon which collection had not been attempt ed, and Ellsworth said he also found
