DOUGLAS COUNTY TAX
PAYERS' LEAGUE.
By H. O. Pargeter, Secretary.
Workers Perturbed
Judge Busenbark reported to
day that he had been visited by a
delegation of WPA clients who
are greatly perturbed by the sit
uation. They claim, he reported,
that, contrary to the claims of a
labor shortage, few jobs are avail
able at present. While some work
is available in hayfields, the
county judge said he was told,
this work is only of a temporary
nature, and little farm work
would be available until the fall
harvest.
The county judge said he had
Inquired Into the method of the
WPA in dealing with clients who
accept temporary outside employ
ment and had been informed that
it was the policy to restore them
to the rolls when such employ
ment ended. He said, however,
that workers had Informed him
that In some cases, at least, this
policy had not been carried out In
actual practice and that some
workers had been forced to wait
several weeks for reclassification
and reemployment afler having
taken outside work for a brief
period. For this reason, he said,
some of the workers were reluc
tant to accept temporary jobs.
Status Assurance Given
Judge Busenbark said further
inquiry will be made into this
phase and an effort made to as
sure every WPA client that his
status would be unchanged upon
conclusion of outside employment
and that an endeavor would lie
made to provide release of work
ers for harvest duties in I he event
of any emergency.
Wilh 100 or more men needed
for the airport project, he said,
there is little danger of any com
plete closure of the WPA agency,
and the county court probably
will not ask any restrictions on
classification of workers unless it
is shown that outside? work is
available, and, furthermore, that
If such work is accepted that the
worker shall have the right to re
turn immediately to the WPA em
ployment roll when temporary
outside employment is ended.
