Clinic Successful
Helping JobIess
Find Employment

CHICAGO OLNS)."-Clinic tested"
workers are moving from Minneapolis
relief rolls to jobs in private industry
today, marking as successful a voca-
tional guidance clinic developed by the
Minneapolis city relief department and
the WPA. The clinic, information
to the American Public Welfare As
sociation shows, was developed to as
sist persons on relief to find jobs.
Activities Of the clinic were devel-
oped around a program "to fit the
right man to the right job" This was
necessary because many persons on
relief had had no work for some time
and needed "brushing up" and also
because certain types of defense work
in the area needed men with special
training, which the clinic could pro-
vide.
City Saved $4,000 Monthly
More than 600 relief clients have
taken tests in the clinic, and one out
of every three has been placed in
steady jobs. This means 200 families
were taken off relief rolls, saving the
city more than $4,000 a month. An
other $50 have been placed on a pre-
ferred list of applicants for jobs in
defense industry scheduled to oper
soon, and another so have been as
signed to NYA and WPA training
! courses.
The clinic was started year age
and, after experiment and study, was
set up on an effective basis last
spring. The clinic reports many cases

a man had worked as an ''office boy
for 10 years until he was discharged

with small tools, and he was trained
for a job as a household appliance
service man. Another man, handi
capped by loss of a leg, is being train
ed as a craftsman.

LIBERALIZATION Is
Urged For Coping
With Problems S

New York City QLNS).-The pres
ent state system Of unemployment in
surance is inadequate to cope with
after-war problems and the systems
of some states are threatened with
bankruptcy even before the end OF the
war as a result of prioritles unem-
ployment, the American Association
for Labor Legislation and the Amer
ican Economic Association were told
at a joint panel meeting here.
Champions of a federalized system
of unemployment insurance benefits
said that nationally administered
program would make it possible to
pool the $2,500,OOO,000 reserve fund
held in trust at Washington for the
various states and thus meet unem-
ployment needs on national basis.
The panel had been scheduled as a
debate on the merits of Federal as
against state administration Of unem-
playment insurance, but President
Roosevelt's order turning the state
employment services over to the So
cal Security Board as means oil
speeding the mobilization Of workers
for defense jobs left many of the OPP
ponents of Federal administration
with the conviction that discussion was
academic and that it was just a mat
ter of waiting until the government
took over the insurance functions as

Fight Is Threatened
However, Lewis G.. Hines, Pennsyl-
vania State Secretary Of Labor ano
Industry, and Miss Elizabeth Brandeis
Of the University Of Wisconsin, daugh-
ter of the late Supreme Court justice
Brandeis, declared that. the nationa
authorities would have more of fight
on their hands if they attempted tt
nationalize the state job insurance
funds without giving the states more
Of an opportunity to express then
views than they had had in centrallz
ing the employment service.
To set at rest the fears Of those
favoring state administration, EWar
Clague, assistant director of the Bu
reau of Economic Security of the SO
cial Security Board, said the taking
over of the employment offices was in
tended only as wartime measure ant
that any permanent shift Of authorit!
would require formal action by Con

lures.

REAL COOPERATION

In a recently made canvass Of the
employees of the Wellsville China Co.
in regards to buying defense bonds,
we are glad to report they voted one
hundred per cent cooperation. Every
employe of the plant agreed to pur-
chase at least one Defense Bond, the
bonds ranging from $500 to $250O0.
We congratulate the employees for the
wonderful spirit shown, and will look
forward for similar results from other
plants.

GOVERN MENT BONDS

The Treasury Department in Wash

Of Government bonds because these
sales help to finance the war and
prove that the public is backing al!
activities and plans of the Govern

Government bonds are a safe invest
ment in which no one will lose his, or
her, capital even if the purchasers do
not receive large returns on their in
