by Smyrna Man
CANVASS FOR LABOR

Thomas Russell of Smyrna has
been appointed to supervise all
labor recruitment in Kent and Sus-

ed by Elmer H. Smith, state diree-

office of the Employment Service
for five years. He will now man.
age both the Dover and George

Smith said. Mr.. Russell said that
the offices under his direction are
making a concerted effort to re-
cruit sufficient workers to assure
the canneries in the area of enough
help to process this seasons crops
Make Labor Surveys
Surveys to establish how many
former cannery workers will be
available this year are now being
conducted by the two offices. Also
a representative of the service in
each county is contracting service
clubs and women's organizations tc
enlist the services of persons who
do not ordinarily enter the labor
market. These people are being
asked to take full or part-time
work. Thus, the Employment Ser
vice is canvassing both the normal
sources of cannery labor and out
side sources for workers this sea.
son. He called attention to the
fact that larger acreage will be
planted to commercial and cannery
crops in Delaware this year than ir
previous years, and that more har.
vest hands and cannery workers
will therefore be necessary. The
nations war need for these crops
and the current shortage of labor
makes it the patriotic duty of able
bodied persons to register for full
Tor part-time work, he declared.
Pay For workers
Mr.. Russell said that some mis-
understanding has arisen through
the use of the word volunteer" il
requesting extra workers for the
canneries. No one is being asked
to work without pay, he emphasiz.
ed. The extra workers will work
as many hours a week as they car

pay as regular full-time workers
