Former Employes Released
from Army Return to Old
Positions With Prevail
ing Rates of Pay.
Fifty-three men discharged from
die national army have been re
instated in their old positions at
the Swift Packing company. Old
jobs for the returned men, with pre
vailing rates of pay, is the policy of
the company, and is bringing back
former employes with great ra
pidity. The work of reinstating men was
given a flying start by the an
nouncement of Louis E. Swift,
president of the company, that all
of the 7,434 Swift employes who
answered the call to arms would
find their old jobs waiting for them
on their return.
Howard M. Sloan, a cattle buyer,
is one of the employes anxiously
awaited by his former employers.
Sloan was one of the "Devil Dogs,"
that held the Huns at bay at Bel
leau Wood last June. In the fight
ing there he lost part of one hand,
and was wounded in the leg. At
present he is recuperating at the
Great Lakes hospital, but he ex
pects to return to his old job with
in a few weeks.
