Probably the most acute labor situ-
ration In the State exists at Erie, where
'Mr. Stokes and his associates. found that
about 7000 war workers were recently
Teleased from employment. Through
the activities of the employment service
officials the city councils at 13rie Imme
diately appropriated $20,000 for the
cleaning of the city streets and parks
and is planning to resume public Im
provements just as soon as the weather
flbfltCE
, According to Mr Stokes, the open
winter has donn much to ease the labor
situation, as the warm weather has
permitted much outdoor work that or
dinarily Is delajed until the spring of
the year.
At Allentown a special meeting of
councils has been ordered by the Mayor
to hasten public improvements. They
will meet this afternoon and probably
prepare to pass a. $1,000,006 budget
which will furnish much work.
Acting Director Stokes and some ot
hla assistants will attend the mreting
today and express their views on the
need for averting delay in resumption
of municipal undertakings'
"It Is our aim to make conditions even
better than they are at present," sala
Mr. Stokes, "and to prevent any serious
situation arising in Pennsylvania when
thousands of additional men return from
war service to civil life."
