WANTED: SKILLED WORKMEN!
The old order changes. And with the change are coming fundamental adjustments of far greater significance than many of us have yet recognized. Spotlighting the new "signs of the times" was the action of an Assembly committee last week approving the creation of a State commission to train apprentices in industrial trades. In effect, the committee posted the sign, "Wanted: Skilled Workmen!"
The shortage of skilled labor, in many trades, is already pronounced. Government WPA projects to aid the unskilled have been held up for lack of skilled workers to make the wheels go 'round. California railroad lines have been forced to open training schools and bring in skilled workers from other states. And this despite the fact that railway workers last year had average annual earnings of $1,735. Engineers, firemen, conductors and brakeman averaged $2,359, more than the income of many college professors, lawyers, doctors and dentists.
But the handwriting on the wall is just as unmistakable that the days of unskilled workmen are numbered. The "machine age" has done that for us - reducing the demand for skilled workers. So much so, in fact, that the Legislature is considering State training schools to make the unskilled, skilled!
It is a complex problem. Wrapped up in it is the key to our equally acute relief problem, particularly as it applies to the great army of unemployables. The unemployables are not necessarily old men; nor are they physically unfit; they are the untrained and the uneducated. It is a good sign that we have finally started to treat the cause, instead of the

It is a complex problem. Wrapped up in it is the key to our equally acute relief problem, particularly as it applies to the great army of unemployables. The unemployables are not necessarily old men; nor are they physically unfit; they are the untrained and the uneducated. It is a good sign that we have finally started to treat the cause, instead of the effect. Certainly it is more intelligent than "make-work" legislation for groups which are already employed at boom-time wage scales.
During the last generation the candidates for President always claimed they were born in a log cabin. It is an even bet now whether the candidates in the coming generation will have to say they were born in a hospital or a trailer.
They used to talk about the long arm of the government interfering with private business now perhaps we ought to say the long nose of the government.
Cook
THE CLEANLY WAY
ELECTRICALLY
Here is an idea of how fresh and clean your kitchen will be when you cook on a modern electric range. Walls and curtains keep their Springtime look... pots and pans stay bright and shiny. No wonder 250 women, in Edison territory alone, change over to electric cookery each week.
