Seattle's Most Vital
Problem Today
(EDTTORIAL)

(EDIIOKIAL)
us is an earnest plea, right from the heart,
addressed to the business leaders and principal
employers public and private, of this state
1t is or the subject of JOBS.
AS viewed from any one of the larger cities
Of. Washington today, the coming winter looks
ominous. Unemployment seems likely to in
crease. Already the situation is serious.
But The Star does not believe it really needs
to grow worse. With crops as abundant as this
state is now harvesting and with business con-
ditions clearing as they are, it is YOUR fault,
business leaders. if there is destitution and suf-
fering here this winter.
The gst of the whole problem Is JOBS. If
everybody who needs to work has job there
will be no serious want, no serious suffering.
In this marvellous state of ours there is abund-
ant work for everybody to do-that is clear.
And little statesmanlike intelligence will bring
the men and the jobs together.
The Star calls on you, business leaders, to
drop for the moment all lesser tasks and unite
in an intensive study and prompt solution of
this great immediate need.
True, it is q nationwide. worldwide trou-
bic we share. But we locally CAN solve it this
winter for ourselves If we just exert = united
pull all together to that end. ARE YOU EN-
PLOYERS BIG ENOUGH FOR THE TASK?
