The WPA and State Employ
ment Service has indicated that
the farmers of the state will
have no trouble in getting help
during the harvest season. A
letter has been deposited in
every rural mail box in the
state, urging that application
for help in shocking grain,
stacking hay, driving binders,
tractors or mowers should be
made to the nearest offices.
Over in South Dakota the
WPA administration has sent
out an edict which reads "work
in the harvest fields or go
hungry" This is done to off
set the tendency of laborers to
side-step the heavy work OF the
harvest fields and select lighter
Jobs.

Mr.. Levine, New York attorney

and made fourth appeal through the

Il am ready" he said, implying that
he is prepared to hand over the S60.-

year-old son, who disappeared on the

Mr.. Levine stressed that the way
Is open"
The police and Federal authorities

that any reputable man will agree to
act or will come myself alone"
A special delivery letter was de-
livered to the Levine home last night
but there was no other outward sign
that the kidnapers might have re-

that the letter had any connection
with the kidnapping, and its receipt
did not cause any unusual activity
