Robbins said.
The vocational school offers cour

The school operates 24 hours daily,

an hour. The employment service is
the sole hiring agency for defense

For the benefit of Morrow county
farmers needing labor, Robbins said
his office would assist in every way
possible upon notification of needs.

he said, whereas a year ago only
