THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 21, HHO THE S E N T IN E L , 001T A Q K PROVE, PREPON C hristmas ship coming here ! State Employment Five Counties to Furnish 40 Men Is on the Increase They’re on their way— Santa Ciaua and Joey the Clown with the an SALEM, Oregon - Local boards for selective service in five Ore gon counties will furnish a total of 40 men, selected from regist rants who have volunteered for a year's military training, to report in Portland, November 18 for in duction into the A rm y of the United States, Lt. Colonel Elmer V. Wooton, state director of Se lective Service, announced here today. The forty men compose the first installment of a total of 2806 men which this state is expected to supply for the nation’s armed forces by next June. An addition al 43 men will be supplied Novem ber 20 and other groups will be furnished at intervals of about a month until the entire 2806 quota is filled. Since the Oregon local boards have reported about 300 regist rants as volunteers for induction the local boards which reported earliest with the largest number of volunteers were chosen to fur nish the men for the November 18 quota. Colonel Wooton stated that more volunteers would be se lected to fill the November 20 quota and any remaining volun teers would probably report for induction early in December. The local boards furnishing men November 18 and the number to be furnished by Lane county boards are listed below: Lane County Local Board No. 2, five; Lane County Local Board No. 2. two; Lane County Local Board No. 3, five. nual Shall Christmas Show, trav A reduction from 55,000 a year ago to 27,000 unemployed in Ore gon. attributed to an industrial boom, was disclosed today by the state unemployment service. The figure of 27,000, which in cludes WPA workers, was the lowest since the first effects of the depression were felt. An extensive ship building program was respon sible for taking up a large part of the slack in employment, officials said. Large gains in lumber employ ment were reported. Employment here is about on a standstill, Harold Machen of the employment o f f i c e » n n o u m v il Monday. At the present time there are no new jobs opening up to take additional laborers. The highway strip contract has been finished and work has been slowed down at the Coast Ford dam and these two factors have tended to hold new employment to a minimum, he elling In tho good ship Lollypop and bringing presents for all good boys and girls.
