many
parts
of
the
coun-
are
listed
at
the
government
em-
ployment
office.
Many
of
those
seeking
employment
are
elderly
or
handicapped
men.
About
half
a
dozen
are
recently
returned
veterans
who
are
still
"shopping
around,"
undecided
as
to
what
jobs
to
take.
"Except
for
the
dry
dock,
the
labor
situation
here
Is
desperate,"
Mr.
Whiting
asserted.
"In
the
fish
packing
Industry
it
is
particularly
acute.
The
need
there
Is
so
great
that
we
have
asked
Pacific
Command
to
release
about
20
soldiers
to
work
at
the
Canadian
Fish
and
Cold
Storage
plant."
This
condition
exists
in
spite
of
the
fact
that
there
have
been
a
number
of
terminations
at
the
dry
dock,
Mr.
Whiting
Indicated.
The
policy
of
the
shipyard,
he
said,
is
to
telease
first
from
employment
those
who
were
brought
to
the
city
from
other
parts
of
the
country
to
work
here
during
the
shipbuilding
boom.
"These
people,
most
of
whom
come
originally
from
the
prair
ies,
are
being
offered
transportation
costs
.back
to
their
homes
when
their
work
at
the
dry
dock
Is
completed,"
the
Selective
Service
officer
said.
"Those
who
were
hired
locally
are
being
let
go
last."
A
large
part
of
the
prairie
people
who
have
left
the
dry
dock
are
returning
to
their
former
homes.
Differential
between
wages
in
the
shipyard
and
other
industries
is
a
contributing
factor
to
this
emigration
and
also
to
the
labor
shortage
in
the

Whiting

Mr.

declared.

the

revealed.

are
about
