| MORE THAN 200
COTTON PICKERS
SENT TO FARMERS
No Complaints Received
Since State Opened
Free Agency.

More than 22OO cotton pickers have
been supplied to farmers of Texas by
the free employment office conducted
by the State Department of Labor,
according to Deputy A. l.. Garrett
who is in charge of the San Antonio
branch.
The San Antonio office was opened
on Market Plaza at the beginning OF
the cotton seaSCl in the Southwest
under the direction of the Department
of Labor for the purpose OF secur-
ing pickers for the farmers without
any cost TO the farmers. the pickers
or the taxpayers of the state. 1t has
been financed with fees collected from
licensed OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES over the
state, and has never charged any
thing for the services il has rendered.
Prior to the establishment of the
labor depart rent employment office
there had been q great deal Of dissat-
isfaction among the pickers due to
the fact that transportation charges
and employment fees were deducted
from their wages after they had gone
TO work. All misunderstanding has
been eliminated by the state employ
ment office.
Farmers who need pickers are TO-
quired to come to San Antonio in per-
son TO provide TRANSFORMATION and di-
rect-the picsers to their destination.
The high price OF cotton and the scar
city of pickcrs make the growers
anxious to pay the fare of the labor
ers in order to secure their assist
ancc.. The local Office has sent out
plckers to Waco, Temple. Ballinger.
HillshOrO and other points and has not
received single complaint from the
plckers about the treatment they have
received. Mr.. Garrett stated.
Deputies NJ. \. DominguGz and
John Gragg opened the office in San
Antonio but have been transferred TO
other places. Mr.. Garrett is now run
ming the office and expects to main
tain it as long rs it is needed. The
pickers are sent To points near San
Antonio at first. and as they finish in
community. they are sent further to
the north, where cotton picking is not
so far advanced. Several hundred of
the pickcrs employed BY the state Ia
Dor agency have been sent TO Bexar
county growers.
Most of the farmers who come to
San Antonio after cotton pickers bring
trucks to carry them to their destina-
ton or hire conyeyances after they
arrive. Mr.. Garrett said. Some. how
ever. send them over the railroad. The
farmers arc we'll pleased with the
service being rendered. judging by the
reports that come into the office.

OAKLAND BRAKES ONE OF BIG
SAFETY FEATURES OF Year

BASED en- enthusiastic endorse
n-ents already received from police
and public safety officials in the
sites and town. which have already
been visited by the Oakland True
Nue Travellers. Oakland four wheel
brakes are destined to be recognized
as one OF the greatest safety fea-
lures ever Incorporated In a motor
car.
The True Blue Travellers are the
first models of the 1924 Oakland
line to come out of the factories at
Pontiac, Mich. and SO confident
were the factory officials of the
performance of the new models on
which experimental work has been
conducted for two years. that the
first cars were dispatched to all
points of the compass to demon
strate the performance under every
road and climatic condition.
One of the main reasons for dis.
patching the cars was to demon
rtrate the safety feature of the
four-wheel brakes, and in order to
DO this thoroughly. It Is planned to
offer a demonstration to police de-
partment officials in the more than
1000 cities and towns through
which these cars pass.
AS It is we'll known that the
amount Of braking power is gov
erned by the friction resistance of
the tires against tho road. by dis.

consequently less wear on brake
bands and tires and less strain on

1t is impossible to lock the front
wheels on a dry pavement.
The tendency to skid has been
practically eliminated because the
whole tendency Of the car is not to
skid but to continue going forward
in the original direction of travel.
Even on a wet pavement this holds
true.
The four wheel brake mechanism
on the front wheels has been SO ar.
ranged that in turning. the outer
wheel brake is automatically
which insures perfect con-
troll of steering at oil times. This
means that ever in turning a cor
ner at high speed, when It is neces-

be no danger OF skidding.
