TALLAHASSEE, Sept. 81
1.-THE Americans are coming" is
the answer to the plea of the
British Civilian Technical Corps
for trained workers to serve the
Empire in non-combatant jobs.
Boyce A. Williams, chairman
of the Florida Industrial Com
mission, stated the Employment
Service had received storm of
applications from both men and
women in every walk of life of
fering their services in any ca
pacity.
These applications ranged from
a retired boxer to priest of the
Episcopal church, and a number
were from natise-born English
men who have spent the greater
part of their lives in America.
A native Florida cracker IS
years old expressed a willing
ness to go anywhere he could be
Of serVie and prefaced his ap-
plication with the statement
that he was still good shot
with a gun as were most Flor
ida crackers. Another Floridian
promised to stay on the job till
Hell freezes over or the Nazis
are defeated.
A former British subject who
lost leg in the last World War
offered the services of himself
and 21-year-old son, "a fine
sturdy lad who was rejected un-
der the Selective Service Act
because he was a Canadian by
BIRTH.
An Episcopal priest-50 years
old-born in Canada and still a
British subject-''too old for
active duty-and in addition am
a little lame in one leg. Other
wise, ! am in first class shape
and ready to go anywhere in the
Empire and do anything for as
long as / am needed.
Many messages like these and
countless applications from tech
nically trained persons, many of
whom are already employed but
willing and anxious to do their
part, reveals the true spirit of
America and assures the success
of our role as the Arsenal of
Democracy Z Williams stated.
