New Game Coming:
Post-war Job Hunt
An OWI survey just completed shows that
the question troubling college mstlos the most
was this:
"When they release millions of us from
the army after the war, will there be jobs
enough to go around?"
That is a serious question particularly for
students who have invesled large sums of
money and time for college training to pre
pare themselves for jobs. What are their
chances as against, the mi'l lions of other men
returning from war?
Congress is considering the situation now.
The outline for a post-war America lies before
it in the five-pound, 4"0,000-word National Re
sources Planning Board report on "Security,
Work and Relief Policies."
There is detailed section in the report on
demolization of men, machines and economic
controls when war ends. It says, "We shall
not be content this time to give each man $0
and a ticket home."
The reports deals at length with keeping
1he U. S. economy running during the transi
tion from war 1 6" peace. Dismissal wages for
soldiers, government supervision of industrial
reconversion, aid in opening vast new areas
i'or investment, assistance to industries in need
of capital, enforcement of labor standards, ini
tiation of a large-scale public works program
all these policies, outlined in the report, will
determine whether there will be jobs enough
to go around.
The only trouble with tin report of the
board is that thus far it has had a very cool
reception. Five pounds and 450,000 words dis
courage reading, even by congressmen.
The program is reported too general, too un
real. As a matter of fact, no more money has
been appropriated for the National Resources
Planning Board. The administration has not
pushed the board's report. Already many of
its ideas are attacked, smeared and to an ex
tent, distorted.
However, in the five pounds there are rec
ommended many measures which tend to be to
the advantage of college students a sugges
tion for more public aid like the NYA, for
example.
The report is worth giving careful consid
eration; it can't be ignored. Perhaps, the re
port can lose some weight get down to a few
pounds so that more people will read it, may
be see it in a solution to the problems of se
curity after the war.
At any rate, here is something that attempts
to answer the question: Will there be jobs
enough to go around after the warf
