Conference Is
 Aiding The Vets

Employed veterans everywhere in the United States have volunteered to devote their spare time and money, as well as the use of their automobiles and buggies, for the big job-hunt, in be- half of their less fortunate comrades.
 The Presidents Conference on Un- employment in Washington. has been asked to operate: All the backing it can give, together with the use of it's machinery and organization, has been made, available. Hanford Mac Legion, will direct the campaign from his headquarters in Indianapolis. "A Job for My Buddy is the idea with which every employed veteran will work until April 20.
 Arthur Woods, who heads the Emer- genry Committee of the Conference, te1egraphed the following plan of campaign today from Washington:
 First, relieve distress If there are men in want, take care of them.
 Next, make sure that a man who needs job knows how to look for it. Is the local employment agency well run, and do the men use it? Hunt for jobs, and keep on hunting. It will surprise you how many will turn up if you work, and don't miss tricks. Don't wait-apply at every employ letters, make calls and get your friends to work for you. And there's @ friend in need waiting for every job you unearth. Only don't go so far as to have some one else fired to make room for your men.
 Last, stir things up so as to create more jobs. Spring is here; it's the time to clean up, freshen up. paint up, dig up. spruce Up generally. Every body's doing it. The nation, your state, your town, companies, just peo- pie, yourself, do something that needs to be done; only do it now, don't wait. You'll get it done, and you'll help some one in the doing who needs and deserves help"
