More Men Being Employed Now Than
In The Winter Statistics Show -
Notable Improvement.

Some very definite figures to prove
that the tide of business depression
has turned and that the worst is over
were made public today by the Presi-
dents Conference on Unemployment.
Reports from the United States EN-
ployment Service bureaus showing the
trend of unemployment in the entire
country have been charted and indi-
cate distinct gain.
The mass of statistics dealing with
the hundreds of thousands of appli-
cants and the jobs available for them,
have been figured on percentage
basis, and it comes out that for every
100 jobs available at the various en-
ployment bureaus, there were 226 ap-
plicants in January, 205 in February,
and 1874 for the first ten days in
March, showing a gradual drop. In
other words, there were only jobs in
January for ID per cent of the appli-
cants while in March the number had
gone up to 81 per cent. Assuming
that 100000 were jobless in Janu-
airy, this shows work for 245,OOO per-
sons, or more than the population of
Delaware.
For every 100 registrations, 3S
found jobs in January, Al in Febru-
ary, and 43 in March, With the fall
ing off in applicants there has been
q corresponding gradual increase in
the number for whom work is found,
which figures out at per cent gain.
Officials of the Conference are now
good deal concerned as to the best
methods to bring about the salvage Of
the many men who, during the winter,
have been forced from the independent
into the dependent class.

Government Establishes Office At
Grand Forks To Distribute Aid To
Stricken Area.

Distribution of the S1,500,000 pro-
vided in the seed loan act just signed
by the president for relieving the
acute stress of the farmers in the
crop failure area of the northwest

tons for the work of making the
fund available in small loans to farm
ers have been going forward rapidly
for some time and the United States
department of agriculture, through its
seed loan committee, is ready to be-
gin business without delay in time
for the spring planting.
Office at Grand Forks
Arrangements have been made for
opening a branch Office at Grand
Forks, as was done in the case of
previous government loans for the re-
lief Of farmers in that section of the
country, who have suffered a series Of
crop failures for the last several
years. The clerical force that served
at the office there last season will BID
reassembled. Their familiarity with
the work will make possible a speedy
organization Of the Office.
The relief is provided for farmers
in the "crop failure area" for the
purchase of spring grown grain for
seed, which includes wheat, oats, bar
ley and flax. The area comprises
North Dakota, northwest counties of

worked severe hardships with the
farmers of this region, many of
whom have no seed and no credit or
money with which to buy any for
this years planting. Since 1918
about $6,OoO.000 of government mon
ey has been lent them in small loans,
of which only 100000 has been re-
paid. Each succeeding year has brot
crop failure and the farmers, it is
said, are as bad off now as they were
when the work Of relief was first
started.

application to their county agent, to
the director of extension work in their
respective states, or directly to the
