Mr. Absher pointed out that over 13,000 veterans are registered In the state, and that 68 per cent of this number had received employment through the national employment of fice. Oregon Is divided Into 11 dis tricts, Jackson and Josephine county comprising the sixth, he pointed out. In this district there were 817 registered veterans with dependants up to the first of May and. 747 of that number, or 01 per cent had been given some employment. Since the first of the month, four veterans havo been registered and 36 given work, he said. Mr. Absher said there were about 100,000 unemployed. In the state, about half of them being In the metropolitan area near Portland. Veterans are given preference In the PWA work where they are quali fied," Mr, Absher declared, "either for skilled or unskilled work on pri vate or public projects." This Is made possible, through the co-operation of city, county and state governments. with the federal offices. An important factor In giving em ployment, Is that local people are always given preference, ho said Re quirements are that the person Is de sirous of work, that he has been a resident of his political and subdi vision for stx months, and Is a cltl ren of ths United States. , When listing one's qualification, i a person has the privilege of nam-! lrg the two choices for positions he j prefers.

EXCELLENT PLOT LOADS OF HUMOR (Contributed) To "Take My Advice," as we all know, Is & very hard thing to do, and so Medford high school's senior class play, by that name, to be presented May 33, proves. Plenty of advice la given through out the performance, but needless to say, precious little of It Is ever carried out. "Take My Advice" has both excel lent plot and characterization. Prom the person of Jud Pen ton, the town ne'er-do-well, pUiyed by Oalen Knox, who boasts that he has founded a new system that of living without working to the so, very so, Mra. Kelson-Dodd, portrayed by Helen Crane, la quite a leap, but one which only adds to the humor of the play. Especially so, since Mrs. Nelson-Dodd, whose chief ambition Is to do the role of Juliet ''with corrections on Shakespeare" Is forever being tor mented by Jud. Peggy Acton, played by Jeanne Qulsenberry, la a sweet young thing, very well-bred and very much In love with Bob Mannlon, taken by Luclen Clement. Bob, around whom much of the action centers, la the editor of a small-town newspaper. He has become Involved in the clutches of John War grim, Bill Pren tice In real life, who Is the villain of the play. He Is forced to carry out Wargrlm'a orders, much as he de sires them. Margartte Boyle characterizes Mar- cla War grim, the owughter and, femi nine replica of John War grim. Suzette Stennett, as Vlrgy Man nlon, Bob's sister, and Robert Sher wood as Jimmy Sampson, Blckley pep salesman "the deader the town the better our results" give the play life and vigor. The ways In which Wargrlm'a ef forts to kill the town of Eureka and to crush Bob are thwarted, makes an unusually good plot, full of surprises and humorous situations. PORTLAND, Ore., May 11.
