MANY APPLICANTS

Summary of Figures Reveals
Chamber of Commerce EN-
plOyment Bureau Active.

Unlike the year OF 1920, the year
just past did not present a serious
shortage Of labor. During the early
part OF the year 1920 there still pre-
vailed a serious shortage Of labor in
all its branches 20 such an extent
that opportunities for employment
far exceeded applications. For this
reason the sum total Of placements
for the past year is considerably
lower than under normal conditions.
The Chamber OF Commerce employ
ment bureau reports 2.378 appuca-
tons for the past u months and l.
t31 placements.
The labor surplus has. during the
past year, been a matter Of grave
concern in practically all commulUi-
ties, but the situation in South Bend
did not become grave until two
months ago.
A comparison Of figures Of the
number OF applications for work
present time is shown by the follow
ing figures. Three-month period
before 1920; applicants, 1928; appI-
cations for help, 2.807: number
placed, 873. OF the number apply
ing. only 10 were soldiers and 2s
were placed
The present employment depart
ment Of the Chamber Of Commerce
was the outgrowth OF the American
Legion employment bureau which
was established in the Commerce
building in January 1921 From
January to August 500 ex-soldiers
applied for work and were placed.
Civilians Seek Work.
During the month Of August many
civilians as we'll as ex-soldiers were
out of work and the Chamber Of
Commerce and American Legion en-
nloyment office was opened. In
September the employment sttua-
ton became so acute that the Cham
Der Of Commerce placed two people
IN charge of the department.

BLACKHAND VICTIM
FOUND IN CHICAGO

CHICAGO, Dec. S1.-Police were
confronted with a murder mystery
here today when the body Of a well
dressed man was found in a shed in
the rear. of a building in the Italian
quarter Of the city. The body was
found by a 10-year-old girl. The
police theory is that the man may
have been a victim OF blackhanders,
Absence Of evidences of a struggle
in the shed indicated the man had
been killed elsewhere and his body
brought there.

an the Texas league | found a
majority of the players i'll with a
strange disease consisting of absolute
refusal to run out flies or grounders
That look like easy outs" he said.
That kind of baseball is beyond me,
q saw a Texas league player set
ing as high as $500 a month loafinr
on balls hit to the infield and running
to the bench on high flies. They
couldn't do it and get away with it
in my time
when l was starting, $500 a month
was a big salary and believe me, we
earned all we got. We ran out all
our hits in those days and not only
that, we had to fight every inch Of
the way, not alone with spirit but with
our fists"
Donln, unlike some other baseball
men, was not staggered by the big
deal in which Willie Kamm, San
Francisco. was sold to the Chicago
White sox. for 100000. the greatest
price ever paid for a minor Lacquer.
Donlin thinks Kamm is a highly de-
veloped bit of baseball mechanism.
The surprising feature to me was
that he was not sold two years ago."
Donlin said. "The first time saw
him he looked like a big league play
er, and I've often wondered what kept
him in the minors"
