There is no suggestion of guarantee OF

lead the applicant to an employment for
which he Is fitted and In which he will
succeed beyond the mere relief of the
immediate emergency.
When economic stringency occurs and
reductions of force are necessary those
first to go are the least competent and
those retained are the most capable.
Those who are displaced have probably
been wrongly placed In the beginning
and had they been in another occupa-
ton they would have been among the
fortunate ones to retain their jobs. In
the lack Of systematic vocational
guidance great numbers Of people have
drifted into misfit occupations. only to
suffer later. 1t is possible that out OF
this bitter experience of the past three
years may come a better system, and
the work that is now about to be under
taken in New York, avowedly expert
mental, may lead to a permanent con-
tribution to the economic welfare Of the
people Of this country.

GIANTS STOCK

! NEW YORK, Oct. /. U.P) - The
World series moved breathlessly
into the second game today with
the iubilant and eocky Giants
+ primed fer a super-human effort
TO make it two straight over the
favored Washington Senators.
The baseball classic gained in in
terest. if that is possible, when the
Giants took the opening game.
They were favored, but had they

in those closing innings yesterday

than in the lean. barren years be-
tween 1929 and 1882.
Today S game ought to be even
better than the opener. The Giants
have now become oppOrtunists.
They've broken the idea that the
Senators are either supermen or
form an unbeatable baseball club.
At the same time the smuggling
Senators may be expected to throw
off the manacles which yesterday
were clamped on their wrists by
Carl Hubbell, currently the great

.CHEVROLET'S
SALES lie AID
COAST AREA

OAKLAND, Oct 4. (SpeciaD =
Adoption of the NRA program,
possibility of price increase and
car shortage, recognition on the
part of the public of No-Draft
ventilation and Chevrolet's long
time performance, were ascribed
here today as the reasons for Chew
rolet's supremacy in sales on the
Pacific Coast by w. M. Packer
Pacific Regional manager.
II have Just completed q tour of
the Pacific coast, declared Pack
er, and found that our dealers
have coordinated their programs
to meet every requirement of the
MIRA. With great factories in Oak
land and Seattle and suppliers in
Los Angeles cooperating on the part
of Chevrolet and Fisher Body with
President Poosevelt's great pro-
gram, we find that the public is
conscious of our attitude. We have
traced hundreds of sales this month
to the MIRA. Chevrolet Motor COM
pany has added thousands to its
payrolls; dealers, operating under
a new compensation plan, have put
on thousands more. Our office
staffs at both factory and in deal
erships have been increased. And
we are glad to report that the
business we are getting justifies the
added operating costs. ..
Another factor in our sustain
ed sales is the possibility of
price increase. Chevrolet anticipat-
ed the great market that has come
to us in 1888 market far great
err than any of our competitors
and made commitments for mat
erials. Whereas we expected to sell
100000 cars in 1888, 1t appears now
that we will sell almost $4,000. At
the present moment, we are afraid
that we might have car short
age. This shortage, if 1t occurs, will
begin to evidence itself the last
week in October.
"All of us are very much sur
prised that there was as much
business in 1888 as sales have prov
ed. Chevrolet's acceptance by the
public this year is the greatest we
have ever experienced. We feel that
the factors of its success are based
on Fisher No-Draft ventilation,
our powerful smooth six cylinder
motor. the Fisher Steel-plus-hard-
+, wood body, the riding features and
luxurious appointments found in
the car. These, coupled with Chew
rolets reputation for economy and
long time performance, have en-
abled us to formulate strong SELL
ing talks. The loyalty of old owners
and the reputation of the Chev.
rolet six are other factors that aid
in its sales
