He says that our city’s employment is nearly at the saturation point, and that unless there is an unforseen industrial ex- pansion, there never will be jobs for thousands of unemployed whom he terms as “surplus labor.” In his opinion between 5.000 and 6,000 men and women, mostly heads of families, must be aided to gét out of Wilmington and into an in- dustrial area where there is a de- mand for their services. No definite Place was mentioned. Another prognant idea was that many hundreds of them must even- tually join the hack to the soil movement. and return to the farms from which they came. Significantly enough this official refused to be quoted or make his name known. Be let it be known in advance that the measiy unemployed relief would not he increased, but thet the unemployed might face a cut in re- lief. He said thet many of the members of the intenning General Gut i in Relief Predicted City Official Assembly, whom he sounded out, will frown uron additional appro- vriations for relief funds. Any funds raised here will have to come from private sources to be matched by the Fedoral Government, because a majority of the next legislature are onrored to voting any more relief funds. Thus admitting that the burden of relief will be shifted to those now employed at starva- tion wares. This cfficial might take his cue from the equally brilliant unofficial organ of the local transient bureau which cautions the 1000 “guests” not to roam to the places where the others had Ieft but stay at} “Harlan Arms” and take advantage of the onnortunities available to study bookkeeping, typing, short hend. accouhtsney, business cor- resnondenes, ete, so thet when vou 9 for a job anv favorable impres- Sion that yot might have created will not be blasted when you say to this emninver, “Con you give a guy a job?” After all, most of these guests ere laborers, Fellow workers. detnand the en- actment of the Workers Unemnloy- ment and Socia!

By ANN ND here is Slava Dunn’s intro- ductory piece to the series of articles which will appear in this column every week, on children. ree ob o3 “(OMRADE-mothers: Are you do- ing anything to find out what are the best ways to bring up your children? Are you interested in knowing important facts about food, health, and general care and hand- ling of children? There are many facts “known today, which help mothers to raise healthier, stronger children. and to train their intel- ligence from the very earliest ages. “But how many working class mothers ktiow these facts? Of those who knoty them, how many practise them? “Just as everything else, the ex- tent to which we are able to practise them, depends first of all upon the money we have. There are many marvelous toys, and conveniences for children, but these, working class mothers cannot afford. They are for use only in the homes of the rich. But yet, to my mind, it is the duty of every comrade who has children to know what they are, and adapt as much of them as is possible to her own needs and resources. “There is a slogan in the US.SR., “The building of socialism de- ds new people—let’s bring up Idren ina new way!” We also. need new ‘eople, able and healthy. We need them now, and we shall need them later. Let’s get all we can out of the knowledge that is available to us. and those. things which we cannot have now—we shall just have to fight for!” ees & “] AM a mother myself and an un- emploved teacher.
