AS a result Of the referral of 81

The fair wages for local work

Firms Cooperate
Manager Harold M. Hinkle, U. S.
Employment Service, said this is
possible because of the stepped up
cooperation of firms of the local
area, in offering jobs through the
divisional employment office.
The Armour Fertilizer company
and companies of the pulp wood
industry, are two of the largest Gus
toners of the local office, who have
recently placed orders for large
number of workers, the office dis
closed.
More Can Help
eff more employers seeking help,
both white and Negroes, would take
this step, the USES would have
enough orders to make possible the
referral of some $500 now on

the jobs offered them," Hinkle
said.
The local offices are receiving or
