HELENA, M.mt., trib
airiKe pr cutu- bi:.ini is a thiiur
' the P(rt,!by the middled Mmk it
should bo known whether unemploy
menl In Montana ft to assun an es
pecially serious phase. During the
time uf the Bloke in Butte there were
mny nl! men in Butte, miner for the
most part; simller men or mill men in
Anaconda and Great Falli, and woods
men and lumbermen thrown out of em
ployment throiiKh the shuttiiiK down
of the Butte mines and the partial re
duction of output of tha smelting
pianta at Anaconda and Great Fulls.
But with the resumption of mining
at Butte, ull thee men, or nearly all
are bnck at work, and with the excep
tion of tho citie directly affected bv
the Butte ea:id:tions,.iiouties or towns
report alarming idleness. Troops are
returning rapidly and will swell the
ranks of the unemployed, but the num
ber of iille.nien will lie the same, prac
tically, whether the: former soldiers
and sailors take their former positions
or not, since the number of womvn who
"took solders' work during their ab
sence is very small in this stale.
The horizon is not altogether dark.
Everything indicates a tremendous de
mand for farm labor. In answer to the
nppeul to their patriotism the farmers
are to pur In, if is said, the greatest
crops in the history of the common
wealth. There are numerous highway
projects, nhandnned because of the
war, will, it is hoped, he resumed.
Except in Butte, the number of idle
men in Montnnn, in normal times, is
usually very small. Duriag the Inst
three years the problem has been not
to find work for the man, but to find
men fur the wotk. Mont'ina was n.it
cignjrod in strictly wr work to any
appreciable, extent and in consequence,
few or its industries suffered when
the armistice came.
It is predicted, as in past years, that
the chief problem in the stale, there
fore!, will be to obtain men for the
farms. High wages for several years
have failed to attract men to the coun
tiy, even temporarily, for the harvest
senson, and it is felt that the s!tuation
I his year will be but little improved.
