S. Employment Service in Eu gene. Urging employers to give Jobs to veterans wherever possible, Donald F. Martson, office manag er, declared that the greatest pro portion 'of these men are well- qualified for skilled and semi skilled work. "Many of them are experienced and trained," he said, "and anxious to get back into the swing of civilian life."-. Office records indicated 655 unemployed Lane County veter ans at the end of February. The number of veterans returning to the county increased from 1195 in January to 1277 in February, as evidenced by number of dis charge notices received- at the office. In spite of the fact that about 300 seasonal workers were laid off during the month, and more veterans returned to the area,-the labor market bulletin estimates unemployment here at 1850 in February, a decrease from 2050 in January. Many of the seasonal workers have withdrawn from the labor market, and some veterans arc Interested In establishing their own business or returning to school, and are not now seeking employment, the report comments. Approximately 400 of the un employed are women, many of whom could be placed in lower skilled employment than, their wartime work, if they would ac cept the lower wages or were liv ing in areas in which work is available, according to the bulle tin. Total nonseasonal Job openings on hand at the end of last month were 271, nearly the same as at the beginning of the month, ai- l -I hough 558 placements were made during February. Unfilled jobs for unskilled and service workers I skilled and clerical and sales jobs decreased. Seasonal jobs were un available, although some poultry plants are expecting a small in crease in workers needed about the middle of March. Trieste Strike Ends; Allies Probe Dispute TRIESTE P A general strike which had halted work tnrougn the British-American zone of dis puted Venezla Giulia province was called off today as a lour power allied commission continued its on-the-spot investigation of conflicting Italian and Yugoslav border claims. The strike had kept the city in a state of high tension, which was increased by a surprise demon stration yesterday when nearly 100,000 persons paraded past the commission's headquarters. The Italo-Slovene Anti-Fascist Union, sponsor of the-strike, said the strike was "suspended" as sign of willingness to collaborate with allied - authorities although military government officials had turned down a request to disband the civil police. Protest Strike The strike was called two days ago as a protest against the kill ing of two persons by police who were removing a Slovene flag from a church in a suburb of Trieste. . The' union, which is pro-Yugoslav, said it had unsuccessfully re quested that patrols by black-uniformed, white-helmeted police be discontinued and that detectives In civilian clothes be disarmed. The union charges that the po lice are composed mainly of Ital ians, that a large number were carabinieri and guards under the Fascist regime and that some re cently were imported from other parts of Italy. Antonio Ukmar, a member of the union's executive committee, charged that 50.000 Italians had been brought in from other parts of Italy since December "for the purpose of impressing the commission." I King of Bikini Atoll Will Move to New Home WASHINGTON, D. C 04) King Juda and his subjects, for merly of Bikini atoll, have a new address on Rongerik atoll, 109 miles from the scene of the atomic bomb tests. The navy said thai all natives on Bikini had been removed to previously uninhabited Rongerik, where the army and navy built new homes for them.
