IRELAND TRIES
 TO FIND WORK
 FOR IDLE ONES
Reported Sixty-two Thou sand Men Are Out of Em-
 ployment in Free State.

DUBLIN, July 20 There are more than 62.000 persons without work in the Irish Free State for whom the government is struggling to find employment. The unemploy- ment difficulty. and the liberation of 12.000 political prisoners still in- terAed. constitute Ireland's most for midable problem.
 It is estimated that the Free State army now consists of 49,000 men, and before the end of the year the Minister of Defense hopes to bring this figure down to 29,O0O. The government is puzzled to know what to do with the 10000 soldiers when they are demobiized. The problem is common to all Europe where, through disturbance of markets. there are more men than can be ab- sorbed in industry. Fortunately. the Irish Free State is in better position to absorb these men than most other countries would be. It starts on with the imporant fact that 1t Is a creditor nation, export ing in each year great deal more than it imports.
