cannot be solved by a single state and
which are not in their nature proper

CHARITY CUT URGED
TO MAKE NEW JOBS

TORONTO, Oct. 5. (UP)-A
new solution to the unemploy-
ment problem has been advanced
by Fred Marsh, Ontario employ
ment service official.
Marsh proposes that wealthy
men and large corporations should
cut contributions to charity In
half and use the money to en-
ploy men and women in extra
positions" not requiring skilled
labor, such as cleaners, reception
clerks, and guides.
"a corporation that annually
contributes $4,000 to charity
could cut this sum in half" he
said. with the remaining $1O,-
600 it would be possible to en-
ploy 10 men at $l,250 a year, or
larger number at a smaller sal
airy.
"The benefit in morale alone
will be worth the money spent.
The plan would not only establish
hundreds of voorhees, men, but
would prevent others from sink
ing lower"
