LABOR CONDITIONS
HERE IMPROVING
Material Gain Shown Over Last
Year By divers Report

Labor conditions in Birmingham
show great improvement over last
year and a material improvement over
the year before, r.. e. Oliver, director
of the federal employment bureau in
Birmingham, stated Wednesday morn
ing.
Mr.. Oliver said his office is placing.
from $50 to 200 workers each week and
has been operating at about that level
for several months.
Great activity in the building trade
has created plenty of work for car
penters and masons. Orders for farm
help are plentiful, made more inter
esting by the fact that many farmers,
instead Of offering flat wages, are call
ing for share work and profits helpers.
In the clerical field. however, the
situation is reversed with many more
clerical workers available than jobs
can be found for. In the domestic help
field there is plenty of help available,
persons desiring work of this nature not
only calling on the. bureau, but making
house to house trips asking for work.

Commissioner WI. Harrison intro

luton because he had not, previously,
been notified of present financial report
on the plants and said he wanted time

various parts of the state are taking
active interest in drainage for agri-
culture betterment and mosquito con-

the elimination of much lap-over work

there will be quickening of interest in
