The Star today publishes the names of 140 men, the cases furnished by Rainier-Noble Post as the “most weet among those of Seattle's jobless veterans. Other names will be published as they are gathered. This newspaper urges its ers to scan the list carefully, and if there is a man listed who can be used in any capacity to telephone at once to Hervey Lindley, the adjutant of Rainier-Noble post—Elliott 479. At the same number, offers of jobs of all sorts, perma-| » nent or temporary, will be listed, and men who ean fill them will be immediately supplied.
