Despite the fact that all place. ments in the area have to be direct ed now through the USES, the total number of jobs secured has decreas- ed in the past two months, indicat- ing that fewer persons are changing from one position to another, MT. Parsons stated. A decline in the number of issuances of statements of availability and the number of requests for the job-transfer certi- ficates also has been noted recently, he reported.
 Traffic at the office in May show ed an increase over April, which was low month, but was about that of March, considered an average month. Total placements; however, showed a drop from 9ll to 878, the monthly report revealed.
 MT. Parsons disclosed that rise in traffic has been evident at the office since the D-Day, with large numbers ofpersons coming in for interviews. He said, however, that the increase could not be attributed directly to tn einvasion since the high point In traffic for the past several months was reached last Monday, hous before news of the invasion came through.
 Approximately 400 school gradu- ates are expected to enter the labor market during the summer, with many of them already waiting for referrals, 1t was reported. The em- ployment manager also said that many IS and l7-year-old students have applied for summer work, but the labor market has not had inl- mediate openings for many of them.
 He said locally needed and the less essential establishments are ut- ilizing part time labor to large cx- tent and that some factories are accepting the student help, but 1t is hoped 8 larger number of such jobs will be made available.
 The greatest labor shortage at the present time is for heavy work, as 1t has been in the past but the need now is more acute than ever before, MT. Parsons said. Many men who come in impose restrictions on the type of work they will accept, with the result that the heavy jobs remain thrilled, he indicated.
 The number of people leaving the area for jobs elsewhere was described as small, and the clear ance placements handled here at the request of out-of-the-area of- fees also was reported to be de- creasing.
 MT. Parsons said, however, that many persons have been removing themselves from the market com pletely, with no further word re- ceived of their activities after they quit jobs. Under the hiring controls rrnorarn. nerRoYls who leave their

YOUR GARDEN
- YOUR GARDEN How to Combat The Mexican Bean Beetle, Other Insects
BY HENRY l.. FREE Written for NEA

Fight the bugs and worms which chew holes or suck the juices from the leaves of your vegetable plants. The asparagus beetle may be pest everywhere except in California. These metallic blue to black IA inch long beetles may be kept under control during the cutting season by dusting with rotenone. The old gardener recommends cutting the shoots deep and clean every three to five days and after the cutting season is over, to spray or dust with one part calcium arsenate and three parts hydrated lime.
 Beans are usually attacked by the Mexican bean beetle, who eats holes in the leaves. This beetle 1 recognizable at three stages: CD patches of tiny yellow eggs on the undertakes of the leaves; CD fuzzy yellow larvae, about a half- inch long, which do the greatest damage; (3) the mature beetles which resemble ladybugs but are slightly larger. dull yellowish orange color with eight black dots on each wing. The beetles do eat many holes in the leaves but will do little damage if the gardener destroys as many eggs as possible and starts dusting the underside of the leaves on which he first ob- serves the fuzzy larvae.
 Flea beetles are to be found on tomatoes, eggplants, peppers, tur- dips, beets. potatoes, eating many .iny holes in the foliage so that 1t sooks as if peppered with shot. Poison spray such as rotenone will kill the bettles while a spray of Bordeaux mixture will repel them. If the tops are not to be used as greens, dust or spray with cryo- lite. Spray mixture is eight level teaspoons cryolite to one gallon esn4ar. DO not use lime or B0r-
