‘HE SEATTLE STAR- T’S life or death in the trench—there must be no delay in supply- ing every man in France with EVERYTHING that he may need or want in his job of licking the Hun. Many a man’s life will hang on there being another rifle ready to his hands, a new, keen-edged bayonet, a plentiful supply of grenades. Back of every man who goes over the top and into.the Hun’s trenches there must be a steady, un- ending flow of supplies. Sevres Our job over here is to MAKE SURE the war work to another unless there’s a mighty supplies are there and at hand. That means good reason. working every minute of every working day It means, too, STICKING to the job. And For there is one of our gravest dangers. America , is losing more through thoughtless changing of jobs, thoughtless hiring of men, than through almost any other one thing. It costs on the average $20 to $200 every time a man changes his job. The man loses time. A machine stands idle that ought to be working top speed on those war supplies. this purpose the Government has es- tablished the United States Employment Service with 500 branch offices and 20,000 U. S. Public Service Reserve agents to help men find war work and to help manufacturers find more men without interfering with other war work. Use this Service—it is free—prompt. It covers the country. It is one sure way of knowing that you are HELPING to win the war, Changes, of course, must be made, for the war industries need more and more men. But Address the nearest U. S. Employment don’t let’s make changes from one essential Office or the Director General at Washington, PRESIDENT’S STATEMENT, “Industry plays as essential and honorable a role in this great struggle as do our military armaments.” “Therefore, I solemnly arge all pps engaged in war work to refrain after August Ist, 1918, from regrets unskilled labor in any manner exc: oa through this central agency (U. S. Employment Service. ] “L urge labor to respond as loyally as heretofore to any calls lg this agency for voluntary enlistment im esse: fadastry, And I ask them both alike to remember that no aavtion will have been in vain, if we are able to Prove beyond all question that the highest and best form of efficiency is the spontaneous co-operation of a free people.” WOODROW WILSON.
