The concern of US all In industry
In this country is the stoppage of
employment; or, to put it positive

employment Of our worlxingmen to
be assured.

900 people in this country.
We are sure that Secretary Hoov-

this continuity Of employment by
suggesting the delay Of Government
work until the commercial boom is
somewhat lessened.
We hope that the Secretary of
Commerce may find some method OF
further controlling this situation
through commercial channels.
