THERE'S NOW A BIG
SURPLUS OF LABOR
NOT ENOUGH WORK FOR ALL
IN CHICAGO. KEEP YOUR
JOB" is ADVICE.

CHICAGO.-"If you've got a job.
keep it."
This is the advice rendered by the
heads of various employment agen-
cies to the wage Garner and salaried
man. 1t is the product of new labor
condition in the Chicago district
conditions which already have pro-
duced a surplus of job hunters and
which threaten to bring about un-
employment on a large scale before
the end of the winter.
For the first time since the begin
ming of the war period there are
more men looking for jobs than
there are jobs to give them. The sit
uation became noticeable about two
weeks ago and has become more so
each day. T.
The Illinois state free employment
bureau is having twice as many ap-
plicants for jobs every day as it was
having two months ago.
Want Work Now, Not Jobs.
"The rock bottom fact of the mat
ter" said w. C. Starkey, chief clerk
at the beureau, els that there are
more men looking for work and
fewer and fewer for jobs. This is
not a seasonal Stacking. 1t is due,
as far as | can make out, to shut
ing off of productions result of
the fact that the public is not buy
ing. Wartime savings are exhausted
and retrenchment is taking the place
of extravaganza.
at is the same way in other trades
and businesses that it is in the build
ing trades industry. The cost of
building Just now makes for high
rents. People cannot or will not pay
the rents, so building is virtually at
a standstill. This is just one sample
of a process that seems to be work
ing out all through the industry in
Chicago district"
At the international Employment
agency, a private concern with offices
on Canal street, the same situation
was admitted, but it was attributed
to different causes.
Idle Men Increasing.
"There are certainly more idle
men than have been in years." said
J. H. Hagle, manager of the agency, |
''but | can't say it is all due to lack
of production. We have lots of jobs
which we are unable to fill simply
because the men don't want to work.
Why? Well l might describe it as
the general unrest. A big, strapping
fellow that looked like he'd worked
every day in his life turned down a
good western job yesterday. asked
him why.
cav, he said, what's the use!
I've got money enough to eat and
sleep for a while, so I'm not going
to work unless the job looks real
good. Have you got anything south?'
That's typical of lot of others.
It's a serious situation"
At Armour & Co., packers the
employment manager reported de-
cided increase in the number of job
hunters during the past two weeks.
