| WASHINGTON used to be
report here to the effect that
Secretary Hoover was trying to take
all the government bureaus under
the wing of the department OF COM
merce, but it appears that Secretary
Davis and his subordinates are still
loaded with all sorts OF work.
The labor department has con-
clliatlon service to help settle strikes,
which does huge business, the U.
S. housing corporation, the fact
finding bureau of labor statistics, the
bureau of immigration, which guards
the border and supervises aliens, the
ch1ldren'S bureau, which administrates
the maternity and infancy act, the
Women'S bureau, which acts in the
interests OF women in industry and
the bureau OF naturalization, which
undertakes to Americanize aliens.
The conciliation service handled
1854 strikes or threatened strikes in
the last fiscal year, adjusting 395
and reporting itself as unable to
adjust but 81. More than $4,000
workers were affected, according to
Director Hugh l.. KerWin. Acceptance
OF the conciliation services decisions,
of course, is purely optional

OF the U. S. employment service,

He notes increased use OF labor saving
machinery in the factories and on

there are fewer opportunities for
temporary or casual employment, a
more stabilized labor market is
indicated.
1t is harder to find jobs for
workers, he admits, but there is an
enhanced economic value" in "con-
dition wherein wage earnerS generally
are more cautious about making vol.
luntary changes" Jones says that
industrial employment generally is on
"a normal basis. Although there is
"a considerable" surplus of labor, he
does not mention the seeming pos
sibillty of the establishment of a large
permanent class OH unemployed, which
is not likely to diminish except in
boom times. Neither does any section
of the general labor department. re-
port mention the connection between
unemployment and increases in
crime.
The employment service seems to
have done tremendous amount OF
good work. for it placed 1888, ATS
persons in jobs during the fiscal year
ended June 80, 1927. 1t had requests
for workers for 1,991,59 jobs. But
the picture is not complete without
noting that 2,44O,640 persons regist-
cred for jobs
In other words, definite figures
show that nearly two and half
million persons were in want of jobs

at one time or another during the
year. To guess at the total number
Of this class it would be necessary
to determine the proportion of job
less men and women who come to
the federal employment service for
work.
Commissioner General Harry E.
Hull Of the immigration bureau, in
his part of the secretarys report,
says that $4,000 aliens were admitted
in the fiscal year. some $4,000 more
than in 1926. Nearly $4,000 departed
without expressing the intention OF
returning and 10000 more left,
expecting to return. Twelve thousand
aliens were arrested and deported,
and some $4,000 others subject to
deportation departed voluntarily.

More Truth Than Poetry
BY JAMES J. MONTAGUE
THE sNooP

A fellow dassnt tease the cat
And that amt really. mean
Because he's always worried that
He's going to be seen.
He dassn't even plague the pup
For fear of prying eyes:
The whole darn house is all filled up
With Santa Clauses spies.
They're hidin back of every door
And underneath the bed
They're peeking at you through the
floor
And down from overhead
They stay here every evening through
AS we'll as all the day,
And notice everything you do
And everything you say.
You can't hide crusts beneath your
plate,
You don't dare reach and grab
You cannot beg to sit up late
For fear they'll hear and blab
You got to be too good, because
If you get mad or cry
It's certain that old Santa Claus
Is going to pass you by.
Of course he's good to little boys
We're glad to get the things
Like skates and kites and skis and toys
That he most always brings.
But don't see how he can bear
To watch me like a hound,
He ought to know it isn't fair
To keep those spies around!
