'The war department has projected an enormous program; ap- parently reckless of the fact that there is not enough labor avail- able to carry it out; in reality relying on the will of the Ameri- can people to drop everything else and put it through.
At this moment this program is seriously retarded for lack of man power in war industry.
If we can have shells enough in France next year, we can blast a path to Berlin. To the extent that we fall behind in the supply of material we shall have to make up the deficit from the living

bodies of our young men. This is not rhetoric. It is cold, precise, military calculation.
As soon as the facts are realized, Americans are going to cease carrying on 'business as usual' and swarm into war work; making possible that which now seems impossible.'
"In February, 1918, Charles T. Clayton, then Field Director of the United States Employment Service, came to Wisconsin and asked the Industrial Commission, as one of its state functions, to lend its offices and assume direction of the government's employment program in Wisconsin. No formal agreement was entered into or even sug- gested, but the free employment offices of the state, from that time on, devoted their entire energy to carrying out the war labor pro- gram of the government in this state. The Industrial Commission acted as State Director in handling the war labor program in Wis- consin, assisted by a State Advisory Board composed of three repre- sentatives of employers and three representatives of employes, with the following personnel: F. J. Clausen, Horicon, E. J. Kearney, Mil- waukee, Miss Sadie Wood, Milwaukee, representing employers; Frank J. Weber, Milwaukee, J. J. Handley, Milwaukee, and Mrs. Jennie Turner, Madison, representing employes. The federal gov- ernment, in March, 1918, sent to Wisconsin, as its representative and to assist the commission, Eswald Pettet, an experienced em- ployment man who has since acted as Federal State Superintendent of Employment Offices.
"An immediate and intensive enlargement of employment activi- ties was begun. In January, 1918, the Industrial Commission, realiz- ing the importance of furnishing war labor had already taken over the Free Employment Office which had been conducted for some years at Green Bay by the Trustees of the Brown County Woman's Build- ing. With federal funds, new offices were opened in every city of over 10,000 in population, as rapidly as possible, and existing offices greatly expanded, in order to insure the maximum amount of al- location of labor from non-essentials to essential war work. But the state, through the Industrial Commission, as State Director for the Service, has retained the direction of all of the activities of all of the free employment offices in Wisconsin. At the time the armistice was signed, there were public employment offices in 28 different cities in Wisconsin engaged in furnishing labor to war industries.
"These offices were organized in accordance with the already es- tablished system in Wisconsin, whereby the communities furnished the quarters and equipment and defrayed the fixed charges, such as rent, furniture, heat, light, telephone and janitor service, but in- stead of the state paying the numerous salaries, for which they had no funds available, the federal government paid most of the per- sonnel necessary to man the offices.
"The primary function of the Employment Service was to win the war through insuring labor for war industries, but Wisconsin also built for the future expecting that employment offices would be a permanent benefit to every large community and that when peace should come the state would wish to resume the chief burden of maintenance in order to retain for the state the benefits accrued thereby. The establishment of the Service was based upon an en- tirely fair and impartial representation of both management and labor, which was insured by the formation of advisory board to con- trol the policies within the state and the various communities. Similar boards to the state advisory board were organized in each community where an office was established, to control the policies of recruiting labor for the district which they covered,-these boards having two representatives of management, two representatives of of labor and a fifth representative agreeable to the other two interests.

"A shortage of labor in war industries, created a scramble among competitive industries for help, resulting in an immeasurable labor turn-over at an immense loss to war production, which necessitated the United States Employment Service controlling the recruiting of unskilled labor for war industries, as set forth in the president's proclamation of June 17, prohibiting the recruiting of unskilled labor except through the government employment offices. A survey showed that at the time of the president's proclamation, there was a shortage of approximately one million common laborers in the United States, and no surplus of labor for the needs of the war in- dustries. Wisconsin was allotted a quota of 16,980 to be supplied to war industries, and allocated from the non-essential industries. Responding to this call over 40,000 men were so allocated in Wis- consin, which kept the war industries running without interruption in this state.
"In this state the federal government has maintained a state cen- tral office at Madison with an efficient corps of workers to clear all information between the state offices and such information as might be valuable or necessary to employers, and employes alike, with central offices in other states. At the present time the federal government has allotted to Wisconsin $1,880 per month to conduct its part of the employment work in Wisconsin for the balance of the fiscal year. This would enable the federal government to maintain its central clear- ance office at Madison with about a forty per cent reduction in work- ing force. The central office maintained by the federal government, adds greatly to the efficiency of the several local state offices in the state, opening to them a medium of exchange enabling them to serve applicants for work where no local opportunity is open, and laying be- fore such applicant practically the entire employment situation in the state and throughout the country. It also serves as a medium of con- venience to employers seeking certain types of workmen, particularly along the line of skilled trades, in which there is a local scarcity.
"During the war period the federal government fortunately had sufficient funds to supplement the work carried on by the states and was enabled to create a national system of employment exchanges sufficient to supply the demands for war labor. In Wisconsin alone the quota demanded for a six weeks' period was 16,980 persons to be allocated from peace time to war time pursuits,-while the number referred to war essential employment during the month of October alone exceeded 41,000 persons,-almost as many as during the entire preceding year.
"The success of the Employment Service in Wisconsin has been officially recognized by Washington in a communication dated Oct. 27, 1918 (only 16 days before the signing of the armistice), from the National State Organizer, Ward Bonsall, which reads as follows:
'Let me congratulate the Wisconsin Employment Service. The weekly graphical report that came to Mr. Hall's desk yesterday for last week showed that Wisconsin had moved to first place of all states in employment service work
"There were employment offices in 28 different cities, and 156 sol- d'ers' bureaus reporting to these offices their local soldiers' applica- tions and opportunities, according to the district in which the bureau was located,-all functioning well up to and including the time of the withdrawal of funds by the federal government. The Employment Service has up to the present time maintained a camp representative at each of the demobilization camps in the United States. At the time of demobilization, the released soldier has been permitted to file his application for employment with the representative of the Employment Service and this application has been forwarded to the state to which

WISCONSIN'S WAR ACTIVITIES
the soldier is returning and, in turn, is delivered by the local em- ployment office to the soldiers' bureau in the town in which the soldier lives. So far the employment offices in Wisconsin have been instru- mental in securing employment for 4,008 soldiers and sailors who have thus filed their applications for employment,-8,581 soldiers and sail- ors have been returned to their former employment, and many are returning daily who are in urgent need of continued efforts to con- nect them with opportunities for which they are qualified.
"If the public employment bureaus are to close because of failure to receive state aid, the Industrial Commission will of necessity be compelled to grant applications for private employment bureaus, many of which are now on file with us for consideration.
"Private. employment bureaus charge a fee, and under the present law as large a fee as they desire, to the man and woman out of work in order that they be brought in contact with the industrial oppor- tunities which they are unable to find for themselves. Up to the present time, the commission has denied all new applications for pri- vate employment agencies, believing that the public agencies, with the few private agencies now in existence, are amply able to take care of the work incident to employment offices.
"In round numbers 122,000 working men and women have been placed in jobs through the public employment bureaus in Wisconsin during the past year. The minimum usual fee for service of a private agency is $2.00 apiece. At this rate it would have cost the working men and women of this state, to get the same service as was granted to them through government agencies, nearly $250,000. The fee of many of the private agencies for service is considerably more than the minimum of $2.00. I think it is safe to say that the public employ- ment bureaus in Wisconsin have saved the people that have been served through them fully half a million dollars during the past year.
"The federal government now is spending on the employment offices in Wisconsin at the rate of about $140,000 per year for salaries alone, and other expenses about $30,000; and the state at the rate of about $7,000 per year for salaries and incidentals. The cities and counties of the state have contributed as their local share about $20,000 for permanent equipment and about $14,000 for rentals, covering a total for cities and counties of about $34,000, spread over an average of about a seven months' period of time."
