Farm Labor
QUESTIONABLE
Being Mailed

Will you need farm workers
during 1912?
Will you be available for work
on other farms during 1912?
These are the two questions
asked by the Newark office of
the United States Employment
Service in QUESTIONABLE post
cards being mailed this week to
more than 5000 farmers in the
Newark district.
According to John B. Gilbert,
local employment office manager,
these cards constitute the first
step in the broad program of the
United States Employment Ser
vice to estimate the probable de-
mand for farm labor in Ohio pre-
liminary to recruiting needed
workers.
The same technique which has
enabled the United States En-
ployment Service to function as
the labor recruiting agency for
war industry will be used in sup
plying the farmer with adequate
help, Manager Gilbert said. He
pointed out that expanded field
office facilities will be provided
wherever necessary to meet the
farmers needs.
"Our main concern right now,"
he said, "is to get these cards
back properly filled out. Just
as soon as we find out how many
farmers need additional help, we
will begin a campaign to recruit,
classify and allocate workers
where they are most needed"

Fire Protection

Contrary to rumor New
ark township trustees are
willing to pay a reasonable
amount" for fire protection
outside of the Newark in
corporation lines, it was re-
vealed at a recent council
meeting.
This being the case there
should be no difficulty in ci-
ty and township officials
getting together and work
ing out an equitable agree
ment before the council
meeting March 16.
Newark township trustees
are right in their conten-
tion other neighboring
townships should also pay
their proportionate share
for fire protection when ci-
ty equipment is used out
side Of the city limits. We
hope that this difficulty can
also be ironed out to the
satisfaction of all concern
ed.

The meeting was the second
held to discuss the problem of
juvenile delinquency, it's causes
and remedies, at the instigation
of Councilman J. Harry Payne
and others.
A formal appeal is being made
to the city council to amend pres
ent legislation regarding the pol
ice department, and City Soil
citor Charles B. Holtsberry has
been asked to draw up an ord
nance to permit the hiring of
police woman.
1t was pointed out that a cap
able woman would be able to
enter restaurants, beer parlors
and other hangouts of juveniles,
assist with the enforcement of
a proposed new curfew ordin-
ance, and generally keep down
infractions of the law now prev
alent among certain business
places in serving the minors.
The mayor and safety director
will also contacted in an effort
to bring about the eventual en-
ployment of the police woman.
1t was pointed out in an after
meeting discussion that a woman
would be able to enter rest
rooms, ETC., where a male officer
could not go and would under
stand the psychology necessary
in the handling of girls.
The proposed new curfew or
dinance would call for all child
rem under 16 years old to be off
the streets at 10 p. m., unless on
their way home from a school
athletic program, church, or
other recreational and education
al functions. To be upon the
streets after 10 p. M, in other
than the aforementioned circum-
stances, unless accompanied by
the parents, gardian or other
constituted authority, would be
an infraction of the law.
1t was also agreed that the
curfew ordinance and subsequent
enforcement would also be in line
with civilian defense during the
emergency in that it would aid
in keeping children off the

When it was suggested that
the gasoline station operators
should be able to work out a
gentleman's agreement among
themselves it was revealed that
they had already attempted to do
so but there was "too much CHS
cling among themselves"
President of Council Clint
Conner presided at the meeting.
Speaking for the oil men were
a number of operators, among
them w. H. Anderson who stated
that rs percent of the independ-
ent gasoline stations were in
favor of regulatory measures for
the purpose of cutting overhead,
conservation of gasoline, and as
a safety measure.
Other speakers said they were
of the opinion that if opening
and closing hours of barber
shops could be regulated by or
dinance that gasoline stations
could also be governed.
City Solicitor Charles B.
Holtsberry told the group that
the barber's closing hour ordin-
ance came under the state health
regulations, but that gasoline
stations, as he has interpreted
the law, did not.
"The general conception of the
politician" said Holtsberry, "is
that he should agree with the
majority" However my office
is such that | have to render a
decision based on the law, and no
matter what my personal feel
ings in the matter may be, or
how just your cause, it is my
opinion that the higher courts
would not uphold regulatory
legislation on opening and clos
ing hours of business establish
ments, if passed by this coun-
Gill;" concluded the solicitor.
Representatives of Tedo's Ser
vice station and the Buckeye Oil
company were present and Wig
orously protested any attempt at
/ legislation, explaining that they
operated 24-hours per day and
found it profitable. They also
stressed the point that a num-
Der of employees would lose their
jobs should such closing hours
be adopted.
The Buckeye Oil company,
which maintains three stations
in the city, keeps only one open
for "a hours, but according to
testimony at the meeting SER
vices a great number of trans
port trucks during the night.
Tedo's operates a complete "a
hour wrecker and repair service.
The Buckeye Oil company and
Tedo's service station would
come in the category of "inde-
pendent stations"
The meeting was finally ad-
journed after the station opera
tors were again counseled by
President Of Council Conner to
try to work out a gentleman's
agreement, and that government
restrictions may soon take care
of the matter anyway.

Local Government

There is a general lack of
interest displayed by local
people in meetings of the
city council and the board
of education, especially
those dealing with public
budgets. Real democracy
must be found in local gov
ernment. The federal and
state governments are and
must be republican in form
operated by our representa-
tives and senators and upon
whom there can be no close
and intimate check.
However the city coun-
Gil and school board are
right here in our midst.
Members of these bodies are
our neighbors. We elect
them because we know them
personally. They are ready
and willing to respond to
the will of the people, prov
ided they know what that
will is.
Certainly we cannot criti-
cize our local public officials
if we do not know what they
are doing. We cannot know
what they are doing unless
we take the trouble to find
out.
We have talked to a num-
Der of people who have lit
tie or no conception of how
local government operates.
To our mind this is a TRACE
dy-it is a thing which can
grow to the state that true
democracy can be lost.

Newark's Loss

There are a lot of young
sters, and a goodly number
of men and women in New
ark who are going to miss
Champe J. Stoakes, general
secretary of the YMCA,
when he leaves to take up
his new duties in similar
work in Columbus April l.
There is no question about
it-what is Columbus gain
is Newark's loss. His place
will be hard to fill.
During the three and one
half years both Mr.. and Mrs.
Stoakes have been in New
ark they have contributed
much to the civic and social
welfare of the community.
Mr.. Stoakes' excellent
record as secretary of the
YMCA testifies to his abili-
ty at organization and pro-
gress. Without doubt the
record made in Newark is
one of the reasons he is
sought for work in larger
fields of endeavor.
Under his capable leader
ship the YMCA here has
grown both in membership
and program activity. Sew
en- new organizations were
formed.
We join with a host of
others in wishing you every
success in your new posi-
ton, Mr.. Stoakes. Good
luck!

Two other divorces granted Friday involved residents of Torrington and Oxford.
