Drive
(Continued from Pare One)

Verkler comments on the
drive as follows:
Through our local Commun-
ity Chest we are able to relieve
not only the suffering Of men,
women and children in other
lands, but can carry on and sup
port the following local organi-
cations: Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts.
Crippled Children, Kings Daugh-
tiers work and clinic, and the
Salvation Army.
This represents one big drive
to take care Of practically all
donations for a year." Verkler
said. Your support in the past
has been 100 per cent, and We
are going into this drive with a
feeling that you will continue
your generosity OF the past and
enable us to reach our goal.
THE success of this drive
rests squarely on the shoulders
of the workers, because 80 out
of 100 citizens will willingly
subscribe if given the opportun-
ity through solicitation. In ask
ing for workers we are not de-
handing too much. Only a few
moments Of the workers spare
time is asked for this most
worthy undertaking."

100000 Jobs
But Unemployed
Shopping Around

WASHINGTON, Oct. 2 -(P
Although more than 100000
persons are unemployed, some
100000 jobs are going begging.
Government manpower Off
Gals today advanced some the
cries why this should be.
The job openings are listed by
the United States Employment
Service, which said the answer
probably lies in a combination
of these circumstances:
!. Many of those laid off pos
seSs specialized skills for which
there is no current demand.
2. Some, accustomed to high
wartime wages, are shopping
around for good-paying job in
civilian production.
3. A large number of the Jobs
listed do not pay well.
4. Many war workers decided
to take a vacation-for some
their first in three or four years.
An employment service Off
cial who asked anonymity said
he believes the matter of jobs
not matching skills is one of the
principal reasons why some are
not being filled.
DIFFERENT SKnLS
The great majority of persons
laid off since the war ended had
jobs in manufacturing indus
tries, the official noted. On the
other hand, most of the current
openings are in agriculture, the
service and trade industries ana
finance.
Many war workers acquired
specialized skills which they
would like to continue to use in
making their living" he said.
There is no place for all of
them yet in civilian production,
SO they are just waiting-many
of them living on their savings"
The official stated that while
some former munitions workers
are holding out for better pay
ing peacetime Jobs, This is not
as big q factor as some people
think"
mot many persons" he con-
tinued, ARE inclined or in a fl
nancial position to hold out very
long,"
But some Of the Jobs listed, It
was said, probably will be pass
ed up indefinitely because in
come they provide is not con-
sidered adequate.
Thousands Of laid off war
workers who decided to take a
vacation probably will begin
looking for new jobs this month,
USES said.

MOlOtOv in Huff Theatens
to Walk Out on Conference

LONDON, Oct. 2-(R-Infor-
mants high within the Counsel Of
the Foreign Ministers confer
ence said today that Soviet For
eign Commissar v. M. Molotov
threatened to 60 home over the
weekend after heated argu-
ment with British Foreign Sec
rotary Ernest Bevin.
The Representatives OF the
United States, Russia, Great Bri-
tain, France and China met more
than two hours this morning and
reconvened for another session
later. It seemed that even the
most superficial Argument could
not be reached.
There still was no definite in
diction of when the five top dip
plomats would give up and bring
the conference to an end. Each
minister appeared to be man.

sions had ended in failure.

HOPES SLUMP
This unwillingness TO be the
delegation which signalled the
breakup of what the world had
hoped would be the beginning Of
Europe's peace settlement was
the only thing that kept the five
foreign ministers still debating
in apparent futility. authorita-
tive sources said.
Molotov was reported by per-
sons present at the weekend ex-
change to have taken exception
TO remark by Bevin that the
Soviet Commissar's m h d S
were "Hitlerian."
The clash resulted when Mo-
lotov demanded that the mini
sters revoke a decision of Sept.
IL on procedure, which permit
led France and China to sit in
on all discussions.
POINT AT ISSUE
This is the issue which had
oeadlocked the conference for
more than a week with Russia
insisting that the Potsdam deci-
sions be adhered to with only
the Foreign Ministers of the Big
Three discussing and drafting
peace treaties for the Balkan
states.
The report was that Molotov
said in effect that when the
group of powers reached an
agreement in common and that
afterwards one or more realized
their mistake, the council should
reconsider and repeal the desi-
sion.
To this, Bevin was understood
to have said he had "never heard
anything more like Hitlerian
methods"
Persons present said Bevin's
remarks were translated into
French and Russian while the
ministers sat tense and waited
for an explosion. There still XXX
etc as before.
When the interpreters finish
ed, Molotov arose, walked to-
ward the door, turned and said:
DEMANDS RETRACTION
UNLESS that remarks is with
drawn, l am leaving the room
and the conference"
A few seconds of silence
elapsed.
Then Bevin spoke, saying he
withdrew his remarks.
Molotov returned to his chair
Persons present said that al
this point there seemed no hope
of the conference continuing
The ministers, however, attempt
ed to get back down to work
and break the deadlock on tho
Balkan issue.
Later during the session, Mo-
lotov in a speech described a!
full of implication and innuendo
recalled previous conference Of
Foreign Ministers which he said
were successful because they
were held at Tehran and Moscow
and because former u. S. Secre-
tary of State Cordell Hull and
former British Foreign Secretary
Anthony Eden were present.
Molotov was reported to have
told the council there were
Cordial Relations" during those
previous sessions.

AFTER "a MONTHS with the
AAF in the South Pacific, where
he earned nine battle stars and a
couple of Presidential unit cita-
tons, ex-corporal Ernest Oil
wares, a new Greyhound bus
driver, faced one of his most diff
ficult chores at 4:37 a. m, the
other day, when for the first
time he took the days opening
run to Detroit. This run, by the
way, entails a lot of unexpected
stops at corners when from one
to five factory workers wait pat
iently for the bus that means so
much to them. Olivares was far
from certain that he'd pick them
all up on this first run.
But he hadn't figured on the
quiet-spOken man who climb
ed on in Mount Clemens and
struck up an acquaintance
with him. The passenger was
Bert Lorway, Detroit Times
linOtyper, who has made that
morning run for yNars. Bert
sat up front and not only told
the new driver of every stop
ahead, but told him how many
men and how many women
would be waiting at that dark
point on the highway. Only at
one stop, was Bert wrong. He
had predicted a man would
be standing there in the shad-
ow Of q building but
there was no one there. As
the bus moved on, Bert sud-
denly remembered: "Oh, sure!
He works at Kelsey-Hayes,
and they're on strike!"
