and found himself a very salts
factory position. His employer
liked his work, but again the en-
ployer had no alternative. The war
ended and much Of Wilmington's
population decreased, therefore the
employers found that they couldn't
use these veterans who had been
employed the year before to fill
the need OF workers. The employer
found that he must let these men
20. Business is business, and he
couldn't afford to pay out with no
returns. He couldn't let the men
60 who had stuck with him during
the war and who had been very
loyal and faithful workers. Once
again the doors closed to your vet
Grams.
So here we are, $50 strong in
Wilmington. No jobs for US. We
are willing and anxious to work
and we are searching for a job
every day. We want a job in which
we can learn and move ahead &C.
cording to our ability and merit.
This job must be one in which we
can make ends meet. We don't
want a high salary, but what we
do want is a job on which we can
live on and have the necessities Of
life. This is not a job that pays us
as little as the $3.50 club and its tax
free hand-out of $50 per week. Can
anyone live on that? We who have
wives and children cannot. We
don't want promises and sympathy.
We just want a chance to become
a part of Wilmington once again
and take up our lives where we left
off before we answered our call
to duty.
AS it has been said before, jobs,
not homes, are our most urgent
need. Wilmington's position is per-
haps unique in that we have plenty
of living accommodations : but
little employment. The veterans
are perhaps more keenly aware of
this than anyone. Let's get together
now, to get building priorities open
ed for industrial construction.
There are hundreds Of veterans
in need Of the jobs those industries
can create.
