KENNEY
Usual Spring Relief Lacking;
Condition Not Peculiar
To Salem
FLIGHT, TWENTY YEARS LATER
Contrary to the usual situation
as spring advances, the employ
ment problem here is growing
worse Instead of better, E. A. Ken
ney, superintendent of the local
U. S. employment service bureau,
said yesterday. Practically every
man who has ben calling at bis
office lately is deserving of work,
Kenney says, but to nearly all he
has to give the monotonous story
that Jobs are at a premium.
More inquiries than ever for
work are coming to the bureau
here, one of four operated in the
state by the federal government,
with at least 50 per cent of the
applicants from California. Many
who seek work now are from tho
eastern states. Added to the de
mand from the southern and east
ern groups Is that of Salem and
Marfan county residents.
The present condition is net
peculiar to this section, says Ken
ney, as reports from the other
offices iu Oregon, from Califor
nia and from the east show that
there is a surprisingly large sur
plus of labor all -over the country.
Financial Conditions
Held to Blame
The financial condition of the
country Is generally responsible
for the labor situation, Kenney
believes, although he adds the
weather here has retarded work
In the berry fields especially.
Right now, the rocal office has
between 300 and 400 men and
women signed up for berry jobs
which will not open until next
Wednesday or Thursday.
In his report for the week end
ing yesterday, Mr. Kenney says
that registration for strawberry
pickers Is full and that there is
still a big surplus of pickers. Work
In the fields of Etterbergs will
start about June 12. There are
some calls for labor in hop yards,
with three men for every job, and
In nearly every line the labor bal
ance Bhows a surplus.
The past week. 82 men and 36
women registered for work; 104
calls for men anil 30 for women
came to the office; 110 men and
30 women were referred to jobs;
and 104 men and 30 women were
placed.
Of the 82 men seeking work,
41 were skilled laborers and 35
unskilled while six sought profes
sional jobs; 75 employers wanted
unskilled help. Seventy-nine of
the 104 men placed were unskilled
laborers. Of the 30 women placed,
25 went to industrial jobs and
five to domestic; 25 of the 36 reg
istered sought industrial jobs and
five of the 30 of the employers
wanted domestic help.
