All on the Job!
All the Time!
Now, more than ever before in our
history industrial production has to be in
creased. This is a necessity in winning
the war. And because so many of our
best men are fighting democracy's bat
tles at the front, those of us who stay here
must labor with increased efficiency.
There must be no square pegs for round
holes each one of us must do the work
he can do best
This does not mean that we must all
change our jobs at once. The govern
ment does not want that. If you have a
useful job stick to it. If not, offer your
self to the government, so you can be
placed when and where your services are
most needed by the nation. If you have
to change your work consult the U. S.
Employment Service, through one of its
500 branches, or one of its 20,000 Public
Service Reserve Agents. And you, Mr.
Employer, seek the needed men through
this service. Don't blindly withdraw men
from other jobs. The work they are now
doing may be the most valuable to the
government. The U. S. Employment Ser
vice has definite knowledge of what is
most urgently needed and of the labor
supply of the entire nation. Ask for the
men you need and you will be supplied as
far as it can be done without hurting
other war work.
Centralized knowledge is needed to
effect the correct distribution of labor:
The U. S. Employment Service is the of
ficial branch of the government created
to assist workmen and employers alike.
The government asks you to use no other
agency.
The Unseen Army
Peering through his trench peri
scope, across the shell-scarred wriste
of No Man's Land, the German sol
dier catches an occasional glimpse of
the new enemy that he has already
learned to dread. Deep forebodings
of evil begin to take form in his mind.
America's millions of boys in kha
ki are flowing in a steady stream to
the fields of France. Soon more ships
will be carrying more fighters and
more food that they will need to "car
ry on" to Berlin.
The Hun can see this army. But
he fears even more the bigger army
that is making possible the presence
of millions of our boys in the
trenches.
It takes six to eight men to back
up one soldier on the firing line. It
is this Unseen Army that will make
possible the steady, resistless fight
ing force that will roll back the Hun
hordes. Realize this, men. These men
rely on YOU to fill the gaps in this
great agricultural army. Find your
place. Join your Field Regiment to:
day by volunteering with the
Soldiers of the Soil
Millions of our allied fighters and
still another million and more of
OUR OWN fighting boys are "over
there." All these millions and mil
lions of civilian populations as well
are looking to America for the wheat,
the fats, the sugar and the meats that
are to sustain the cause of democracy
in its fight
Unless you have heard the call to
the fields of France, hear your Gov
ernment's call for "Soldiers of the
Soil." If you have had farm experi
ence find your place in the great ag
ricultural army that Uncle Sam is
mobolizing to "carry on" and furnish
the will that our armies need to bring
victory.

President's Statement
"Industry plays as essen
tial and honorable a role in
tlds great struggle as do our
military armaments. We all
recognize the truth of this,
but we must also see Its nec
essary implications name
ly, that industry, doing a
a vital task for the nation,
must receive the support
and assistance of the na

I solemnly urge all employ

refrain after August 1st,

skilled labor in any manner
. . .i through this central
agency The U. S. Kmploy

them both alike to remem
ber that no sacriflce will
have been in vain, if we are
able to prove beyond all
question that the highest
and best form of efficiency
is the spontaneous co-operation
of a free people."
"WOODROW WILSON."
