AT Employment Story

In partial error was a Thursdax
news release by Jess Tinney, bust
ness agent for Kalispell teamsters
In Kalispell paper.
March is tough month to be
union business agent. Unemploy-
ment in Flathead is at it's peak,
and construction jobs start up
slowly.
In a Kalispell story, Tinney
went on to say that a SpokaEa
paper was wrong in saying that
there would be jobs for truck driv-
ers at the Hungry Horse project.
Actually the story, Tinney had
reference tc was an overall en-
ployment need story for the spring
and summer, which said (that
looking ahead truck drivers, cat
and shovel operators would in
crease from 100 to 200 with pre-
ference given to local men first.
In view of the interest in this
area it is necessary that conserva-
tive estimates of job openings dur
ing the spring and summer be
sent out. Right along with tie
stories is a statement that at pre-
sent time, Flathead has a record
number of men out of work, but
that labor shortage is expected
during the summer. We correct
business agent, Mr. .Tinney, and
the effects of March on
