LABOR SCARCITY
 FINDERS FARMERS
Many Agriculturists Now Factory Employees; PTA
 Sponsors Institute

Cheshire, July g v Considerable inconvenience is being caused local farmers by scarcity of farm labor.
 The State Employment Bureau and Land Army has furnished con- siderable help but there is still not enough to satisfy the demand and unless more help is made available much loss may be sustained. The great amount of rain which has fal- len in recent weeks has greatly in- creased the growth of vegetables and fruits and also has interferred in the harvesting of the crop.
 Many agriculturists are engaged in war work in the factories and only have limited amount of time 10 put in on their farms. Those who :an do so should endeavor to help in this worthwhile work. Unless some more help Is made available shan Is now the case much valuable crops may be lost.

For employees who had been alb

Mr.. Staley placed in their pay en-

and brief statement which said:
"The extra pay attached is for
failure to report for work one day

ding scrap collections. Forty -one
persons out of every 100 questioned
still have scrap that has neither
been taken to scrap depots nor COL
lected.
That so many people still have
scrap in their homes may, of course,
be less serious than it first appears
to be. In many communities the
scrap metal drives are not yet COM
pleted, and trucks have not yet got
around to all of the homes.
Results of the study also indicate
however, that more careful canvass
ing by local scrap committees will
uncover many more tons of scrap.
WPB estimates that there are on
the average about 657 pounds of
scrap per farm In the United States
about IS pounds per home In the
large cities, an overall average of
about 229 pounds per family
throughout the country. On this
basis the Al per cent who still have
available scrap in their homes rep
resent nearly 1.750,OO0 tons of scrap
which are awaiting a trip to the
scrap depots.
AS Of yesterday when the final
tabulation figures were made at the
Institutes offices, here is the way
the Nation stands on the scrap
drive:
Have already turned in scrap or
have none-59 per cent.
Have scrap, can take it to q depot.
and know where to take it-19 per
cent.
Have scrap, but cannot take it to
depot-14.
Again using WPB's estimates, the
% per cent who have scrap and
who either cannot take it to q
depot or do not know where to take
it represent 100000 tons Of scrap,
about which nothing may be done,
unless the local committees make
more complete arrangements for
pickup service.
Since practically everyone in the
country knows about the scrap
metall drive, the task Of the news
papers is amazingly successful 70
far. The principal Job now. lies In
seeing that every available pound
Of scrap sets to the scrap dspots.

lates that an employe now or here
after employed by any shipyard in
the area whose employment termi-
mates for any reason shall not be
employed by another sbipyard in the
area until such person presents q
clearance in writing or a discharge
emitting him to unemployment
from his former employer.
1t was explained that a uniform
clearance card will be adopted and
will be given a workman dmme-
diately on termination of his en-
ployment.
1t was further stipulated that
every shipyard shall furnish daily
to every other shipyard in the area
and to every union whose members
are employed in the shipyards, a list
of all employees whose services are
terminated and who are not cleared
for unemployment.
The agreement calls for the estab-
lshment Of joint appeal board,
which shall be empowered to hear
appeals from workmen who have
been denied clearance by their en-
ployers. The boards sole authority
shall be to determine whether such
clearance has been improperly
denied.
Nom Clearance Causes Listed.
A discharged employe who is
denied a clearance and is subse-
quently cleared by the appeal board
on appeal may be found by the board
to be entitled to pay for the time
lost by him through the denial OF
clearance by his employer. The
agreement stipulates that in no case
shall his allowance be more than
six working shifts.
The agreement cited some of the
reasons why workman may be
denied a clearance as follows:
Loafing, drunkenness, fragrant
and unauthorized absence from
work. early quitting, willful violation
OF safety rules, and sickness, unless
he presents a certificate from a
reputable physician, or is willing tc
submit to an examination by an
employers physician.

ment include three Kaiser yards
