Many States Are Now Seeking to cees

lem Met Here BY etate Action.

Colorado stands first among states
Of the union In doing the right thing
by returned service men.
This commonwealth made II n state
affair to secure work for unemployed
soldiers, through the campaign Of the
Committee Of Relief of ExServIce men
and women. Other states are now be-
stirring themselves to see that those
who served In war are rewarded at
least with chance TO earn living.
In the stute OF Washington n strong
publicity campaign is being waged by
newspapers to remedy unemployment
conditions. In Seattle alone IL is estf-
mnted there nre ut least $500 ex-ser-
vice men Out of work.
1t Is charged there TINT employers
l,nve forgotten their obligations to
their employees who went into service.
The Colorado plan of dealing with
the situation is now being considered
elsewhere. At any rate, this state has
pointed the way for the rest of the nn-
tion In doing its duty to the men who
served in the war.

DICKS THANKSGIVING


Well, never saw such Thanksgiving!
Why, the times are SO hard, do you know
We can't have turkey chicken
No-nor hardly indulge in = crowl
For yesterday father was saying
"No poultry for dinner this year!"
Then he just talked frst-rate to children
And gently called mother my DEAR"
And he said though he'd lost all his money
And couldn't get much that good.
He hoped we'd be happy and thankful.
And we just shouted out that would.
Well. now. amt it queer how things happen?
For only just year ago
We lived at the top. let me tell you,
And went in for splendor and show!
And twas only last year at Thanksgiving
Our table gorgeous with plate.
And every conceivable dainty
That onged for We ate
But we never once thought to be thankful.
For Jared just the same every day;
And we children and complaining.
And wanted things just our own way.
And father-I hardly dare tell you
How angry and dreadful he grew!
For he sat long at wine after dinner.
And that the cause. we all knew.
And mother looked wretched and fearful
When went in to say our goodnight.
For father raving wildly
That she hurried out Of his sight
Well. that last year; then the crash came.
And fathers great fortune gone;
And from all of his hundreds of Thousands
Not dollar was left his own.
At first he just broke down entirely.
But mother stood up like man,
And encouraged. and cheered him. and helped HIM
I'll tell it as loud can
Let man only get into trouble
linen what woman will do!
How quick she'll forget her sorrows.
And help him to carry his. too.
Well. father took heart; we're living
In three little rooms-al four!
But will you believe Il! We
Were a quarter happy before!
Every night all knee down together.
And father thanks God for all
His treasures earth"-so he calls US,
And prays that whatever befa.
"We all may have treasures in heaven.
Where naught can corrupt destroy;"-
Prays for each of kneel there.
His wife. and his girl and his boy.
Well own a weakness for turkeys
And chickens and ducks-(no not crows);
And really enjoy plum pudding.
And oysters and creams-and all those.
But whatever do at our house 90
Shall be seasoned with love and good cheer;
And II that doesn't make . Thanksgiving
Well try to do better next year!

ployed ex-service men in the statewide
campaign of the Committee for Relief
of Ex-Service Men and Women, &C.
cording to its report submitted to Gov
ernor Oliver H. Shoup. This figure
will be considerably increased when
exact data is secured from some of
the localities which reported in general
terms.
High praise for the success of ths
campaign Is given by members Of the
committee to the press, the American
Legion, war service and other organi-
sations, employers, employment agsn-
ciss, officials and public-spirited citi-
sens who co-Operated. Hearty support
was given by citizens in all parts Of the
state, without which the results OF
the campaign could not have been se-
cured.
The campaign discovered only one
unemployed ex-service woman In the
state. Work was found for her by the
committee.
Unemployed conditions were
found most critical in Denver and
Pueblo. Before the campaign 1t was
conservatively estimated that there
were 500 unemployed ex-service men
In Denver. After the campaign. the
mated 100 unemployed, with 141 un-
filled jobs listed.
In Pueblo 238 unemployed ex-ser-
vice men were found. On December
END the number Of unemployed was
estimated from so to 100. The state
committee listed with the Pueblo cam
paiGn workers 800 jobs In other parts
OF the state, to take care Of these.
The greatest difficulty at present Is
to find jobs which ut the qualifications
of the remaining unemployed. Many
soldiers returned from service incapa-
citated for their former lines OF work.
The effect Of the public interest
aroused by the campaign and the wide
spread publicity given 1t Is illustrated
by the results in Denver. The week
before the campaign started 40 men
were placed at work through the Den
yer DemobilizntiOn Bureau. The first
week of the campaign 115 men were
given work. The second week Jobs
were found for S57.
A splendid patriotic spirit was shown
by many counties which found surplus
jobs for unemployed in other sections
after work had been found for all their
own ex-service men out of work.
One Of the most important results Of
the campaign was the Improvement In
morale Of the men who had been un-
able to find work. Many OF these, be-
fore the campaign started. felt their
situation almost hopeless. Az the cam
paign got under way, and Jobs began
to pour In. hope was revived and the
men eagerly seized the opportunities
presented.
The state. committee, after reporting
the results Of the campaign, and on the
condition of federal bureaus created
to aid ex-servlce men. and making
recommendations to the governor,
asked to he discharged.
