Temporary Work Is Found For PIP;
 50 Work Steady
Employment Bureau Issues Report-Relief Committee Budget Shows $z,O0O Less To-day Than One Week Ago

Almost $1,000 has been earned for the unemployed of Waterbury on odd jobs through the medium of the local employment bureau on field street since the bureau was opened by the relief committee un- der the direction of Attorney J. Warren Upson and William Hayes a few months ago, 1t was disclosed in a report issued today. Since the bureau was opened 59 permanent and PIP temporary jobs have been furnished.
 The total earned, though, does not include that obtained by those placed in permanent jobs. Neither does the total number of hours of work provided, as appearing in the report, take into consideration the permanent work supplied.
 In all, on temporary jobs, 2,S58 hours of work have been supplied, representing a total earning of $979.65. Should the permanent jobs be taken into consideration 1t is figured the total earned would be nearer the $1,500 mark.
