EMPLOYMENT TO BE
FOUND FOR VETS

Fargo offices of the employment
service section of the United States
| Veterans bureau, have been opened

charge, w. T. Mollison, employment
representative for the 10th district,
United States Veterans bureau, in
Fargo this week, announced. The en-
ployment section is new branch of
the service.
"The government feels that it's full
obligation to the veterans which it has
trained will not be discharged until
lit has procured employment opportu-
mites for them in suitable and gainful
occupations" said Mr.. Mollison.
"To that end, reorganization of
the rehabilitation division in the cen
trail office has been made in which a
new section has been established,
which will be known as the employ
ment service section.
"The duties of the employment SER
vice will be to procure employment
opportunities, establishing all neces-
sary contacts to accomplish this pur-
pose; to find opportunities for en-
ployment and act as a clearing house
for all such opportunities; to follow
(up the rehablitated veteran on the
job fon the purpose Of assisting him
to meet the difficulties of his new po-
sition; to promote the good will Of the
public towards the rehabilitated dis
labled veteran. 49,
"In line with this policy the en-
Iployment section will list all possible
employment openings for the men,
will get the men in contact with the
openings as they fin1;h their courses
and will follow the veteran in his
work for the first three or four
months to see how he is progressing.
If the bureau finds that he is not in
the right job it will find him another
and will supply the employer with the
right man for the job.
"For the employer seeking a man
for a certain position the bureau will
furnish all suitable information as to
an applicants training and expert
ence and if the man has hortcomings
the bureau will say so and will offer
any suggestions it can to adapt the
applicant to the post,
The Fargo office under the super
vision Of Fred R. Brady, assistant en-
ployment representative for North Da-
kota and South Dakota will direct all
the work in North Dakota from the
headquarters Of the United States
Veterans bureau in Fargo. He asks
all persons knowing of any openings
for men trained by the government
to communicate with him.

BRINDZA PITCHES.
HI-LINERS Win

Brindza was on the mound for thu
locals yesterday in the final game O.
the series with jamestown and tool
the game easily. He struck out sew
en- men, only walked one and set the
visitors down with three hits while
his team mates collected ten bingles
and three runs. Only thirty men faced
Brindza in the nine innings, one ex.
ira man coming up in the third frame
when Gilbert made a poor throw to
first and gave Hubbard life and two
extra men coming up in the sixth
when Peterson connected for the cir
cult and Fitzgerald got a single. Aside
from those two frames the visitors
came to the plate, waved their war
clubs three times and went back to
the dug out for rest.
Valley City scored in the second
when Stalker singled, Carlson follow
ed with another bingle, Brindza drew
a walk and Lane sacrificed, putting
Stalker over. The locals repeated in
the fourth when Stalker singled,
Carlson sacrificed, Brindza passed,
Lane singled and Delman sacrificed
with long drive to center, putting
Stalker over. The final count of the
game came in the seventh. Hart sin
gled but died at second on a fielders
choice by Wenz. Wenz died at second
shortly after. MEME landedosafely on
Koenig's error, Stalker singled as did
Carlson, the latter bringing MEME
home.
The only counter jamestown got
was in the sixth when Peterson, first
man up for the visitors, clicked one
out to left field. Wenz couldn't get
up enough steam to get under it and
attempted to take it on a bound. The
ball went thru him and rolled just I'M
der the left field fence, letting Peter
son make the circuit.
Dean was out of the game yester-
day with sore leg and MEME was
in shortstop position, Hart on first
and Delman in right. It was real
lineup. MEME took all chances that
came his way like veteran and Hart
couldn't get them fast enough, taking
the chances as though he was thor
oughly at home. Stalker didn't look
good in the first two home games but
he surely made lot of people revise
their opinion of him yesterday, get
ting three singles and double for
four times up. He was easily the hit
ting star of the game. Carlson got
two out of three and Hart got two out
of four, one of them being a three
Dagger.

HITCHCOCK
ISLANDERS
REPUBLICANS

eff Senator Hitchcock, of Nebraska,
hopes to ge, any Republican votes in
his campaign for reelection, he is go
ing about it in way that will be diff
ficult for successful political leaders
to understand remarks the Republi-
can Publicity Association, through its
President, Hon. Jonathan Bourne, Jr.
'In a recent editorial his newspaper
says,
"'It is fearsome thing, fellow
citizens, to be governed by po-
litical party that went to sleep
on the day the war broke out and
has never since walked up
Senator Hitchcock knows that the
charge against the Republican party
is not only untrue but so grossly I'M
true and unjust that no excuse what
ever can be given for it's publication.
Every Republican and every Demo-
crat in the country knows it is untrue.
Moreover, the publication Of such a
gross SANDER will be resented not on
ly by Republicans but by honest DEM
ocrats as WELL The subject is scarce
ly a pertinent one in this campaign
but since Senator Hitchcock has seen
fit to introduce it, he must expect it
to be discussed.
The fact is that when the war broke
out, Republicans were the earliest and
most aggressive advocates of prepar-
edness-so insistent that they were
rebuked by President Wilson. Repub-
licans took the lead in the establish
ment and operation Of the famous
Plattsburg training camp. Even at
ter the sinking of the Lusitania, when
almost every prominent Republican in
public life was urging preparation for
the inevitable, President Wilson deliv-
cred his ignoble address in which he
declared the United States was too
proud to fight.
"That was the situation prior to the
time the United States became a par
ty to the conflict. After the United
States entered the war, Republicans
were more active in support of war
measures than were Democrats. In
fact, President Wilson was compelled
to rely upon the ranking Republican
on the Military Affairs Committee of
the House, Hon. Julius Kahn, Of Cal
ifornia, to take charge of military
measures when the Democratic chair
man refused to perform. This is fact
ana the record shows it. Moreover,
tabulation of votes on war measures
shows that in the passing of those
measures there was a larger proper
ton of Democratic votes.
THAT is the truth Of the matter
while the United States was at war.
When time for peace approached, two
Republicans, Senator Weeks in the
Senate, and Representative Madam in
the House, proposed q comprehensive
plan for reconstruction commission,
but this was defeated at the behest
of the Democratic president. After
the arinistice, it was Republican insis-
tence that compelled the Democratic
administration to demobilize, to re-
duce war expenses and to return as
rapidly as possible to peace conditions
in the civil service.
"Yet, in the face of all these facts,
well known to the American people,
Senator Hitchcock has the nerve to
assert that the Republican party went
to sleep on the day the war broke CIT
and has never since walked up Let
the votres of Nebraska say what they
think of that sort of politics.

MAKING DRIVE
FOR N. D. COAL

Bismarck, Aug. 1. = Governor R.
A. Nestos has embarked on cam
paign to sell North Dakota Ignite to
North Dakota people and if the mar
ket is not there. to sell to peoples out
side Of the state. After receiving a
telegram Friday from the Minnesota
state fuel administrator, the governor
dispatched letters to 1900 coal deal
ers in North Dakota in which he i'm
pressed upon them the fact that there
was need of action and that the time
to act was now and not at a later
date. -........
He asked each one of these coal
dealers, most of them in the eastern
part of the state, to inform him i'm
mediately upon:
/. What stocks of soft and anthra-
cite coal now on hand, and how much
more is definitely promised you? To
confer with other dealers and make
close estimates of needs in anthracite,
soft and Ignite, coal needed for the
coming year.
2. To report to him upon a can
vass of the field showing how much
Ignite coal would be ordered for ear
fy delivery or delivery as soon as pos
sible.
8. To make an effort to educate
the people of their district to the use
of this North Dakota fuel, if this edu-
cation was needed in the particular
section where the dealer was located.
In letter leading the requests for
information the governor stated that
";n the past you have relied to a
large extent upon coal from the
eastern and central states to supply
your needs. Every indication now is
that this source of supply is practical
ly closed to us for the winter. Little
COAX is being mined, and there is a
great shortage of cars for it's trans
portation. Even if you get all of the
coal possible from the east it will
not be sufficient to meet the needs Of
your people during the coming win
ter.
"The question now is, what are
we going to do about it? Are we go
ing to initiate the ostrich-shut our
eyes to the truth and say there is no
danger, until it is upon US with all it's
inconvenience and suffering? Surely
not. That. is not the North Dakota
way.
eve have the solution of this prob
lem in our great Ignite coal fields,
close at hand and easily mined. These
will keep us warm and every activi-
ty in our state working normally if
we will but make intelligent prepara-
ton. In recent letters from coal
mine operators, they complain Of the
fact that people delay ordering coal
and filling their bins until the actual
need is upon them, and that then it
is impossible to take care of all or
ders. If this mistake is made this
year, our people are bound to suffer,
and electric light plants and water
works as we'll as other activities may
have to shut down for lack of fuel.
"But if every coal dealer will cam
vass his community and have every
person and corporation place an i'm
mediate order for all the Ignite coal
that they can store, for delivery as
soon as possible, all legitimate needs
can be met, and there will be no need
of any suffering in our state during
the coming winter"
