POST WAR WORK PILE IDEA GROWS The Work Pile is a plan for discovering and cataloguing jobs for the day the war is over. Originating with the San Francisco Chamber of Commerce, it now has been adopted by Rotary International as the No. 1 project for 1943-44—next to helping win the war—for its 5,200 Rotary clubs throughout the world. “We can—we must—avoid a devastating period of unemployment after the ‘war,’’ says Charles L. Wheeler, manager of the McCormick Steamship Co., of San Francisco and president of Rotary International, ‘and it’s surprising what can be accomplished when you don’t care who gets the credit. Thus, many of the other service clubs are pooling their efforts with Rotary to see that every member of every service club will be doing his part in this drive to provide jobs after the war.” Paul B. McKee, president of the Portland, Oregon Gas and Coke Co., and of the Pacific Power and Light (Co., is a member of the Committee for Economic Development and_ is chairman of the Committee on Participation of Rotarians in the Postwar World. “Our Rotary committee,” says Mr. MvKee “has been given the responsibility of organizing a worldwide campaign to help build up a great work pile which will assist ‘in planning postwar jobs. We Rotarians are not alone in this task. In the United States, for example, Rotary is working with the Committee for Economic Development, the Chamber of Commerce, the National Association of Manufacturers, and the Selective Service Board. It doesn’t: make any difference who gets the credit if the work is done well. “An important phase of the postwar work pile is the interviews with industrial executives, wholesalers, retailers, professional men: and the YOUR EYES TELL ——_ how you oo e feel inside Look in your mirror.

Pile plan is not a cureall,, it is not a complete plan. It just a plain, ordinary, down-toearth method. of providing jobs for demobilized, service men and war workers in the postwar period. The Work Pile is a compilation of exact information on the work-which firms and individuals are ready to start the . day war ends. It is the work which will bridge the unemployment gap . following the war. It brings postwar planning down to the individual ci:izen and makes each one part of this program. The Work Pile is the 8hock-absorber for that transsition: period beis turn to stable peacetime levels. Confidence must be established through having the public learn how work there is to be done and having the service men and workers see how many jobs this work will pro, Vide. That is why inventories of work to be done must be made. The Work Pile will. not create new needs, but it will cause everyone to get ready to provide emplovment when it is most neede in the critical period immediately following the cessation of hostilities. The 0objetive is to gét every businessman, every householder, every farmer, io help right now in formulative plans for providing employment for demobilized soldiers and war workers. The first reason why we are planning now for the postwar world, is that if we don’t plan now while we are fighting—if we are not ready to provide jobs the day the war is ov2r and won—we will lose the very thing we are fighting for. The second equally practical reason why we plan now is because of its efféct as a morale builder. No man can do his best fighting in the fox-holes, nor his best work in the shipyards, if he is worried or discouraged about the future. So the best tonic, the best shot in the arm, we can give our ‘boys, both in the fighting line and on the production line, is to let them know that we have looked ahead and have jobs allready for them: when the fighting is: over. STATE MINERAL OUTPUT IN 1942 [IS NEW RECORD Under the direction of Walter Bradley, State Mineralogist, at ation of the final returns from mineral prodlcers of California for 1942 has been completed by the statistical section. The total value shown for the year was $408,738,434, being an increase of $34,412,206 over the total of 1941 which was $374,326,228. The increase ‘was due to stimulated output owing to war demand. There were sixty different mineral substances, exclusive of a segregation of various stones grouped under gems; all fifty eight counties of the state contributing-to «the list. : As revealed by the following, the salient features of 1942 as compared with the previous year were: such groups of mineral substances as the fuels, structural materials, salines and industrial materials showed increased total values; the metals be‘ing the only group to show a decreased value. Of the year’s mineral output petroleum showed the greatest increase in value followed in turn by miscellaneous stone, cement, natural gas, chromite, tungsten ore, potash, quicksilver, soda, salt, molybdenum ore, manganes ore, dolomite, iodine, borates, etc. Decreases were registered by gold, silver, mineral water, diatomite, etc. The greatest annual value for their output in California was recorded by bmorine, carbon dioxide, cement, dolomite, iodine, iron ore, lithium salts, molybdenum ore, natural gas, quicksilvver, silicia (quartz und glass sand), Soapstone, and talc, soda, miscellaneous stone, and tungsten ore. lies not. chicken house on his farm. . because there are. to 413,180,942 These surveys will, public . systems im-!} on . mean in term of employmént of for-! the! and} consolidated and when added to sim-} .the. “An immense stock pile of jobs' ready and waiting for the ex-service men is going to be the best answer ; we can possibly give to those who ;and miscellaneous stone, tween the end of the war and the re-j much! — Of the fuels, petroleum showed an most . .increasé in value of $23,643.376 and of which have already laid énair post . an increase in amount from 229,664, thé little fellow. .

Of the metals, a record total value was recorded for the annual output of irén ore, molybdenum ore, qui¢ksilver, and tungsten ore; while chromite and manganese ore recorded the greatest since 1918; 1923. Nevertheless, these productions did not offset the decrease in the gold and silver production and the group as a whole showed a decline in total value from $61,. 595,912°in 1941 to $46,185,885 in 11942. Of the structural materials, cement increased from 19,531,608 barrels, worth $26,248,694, to 23,306,578 barrels, valued at $35,808,841; increased from $19,559,888 to $27,281,342. Both the above registered the largest annuaFk production so far recorded in California. Brick and hollow building tile increased in total value from $3,508,797 to $5,708,697 entirely due to the increased demand for fire brick, Building stones, such as granite, marble, and sandstone, registered a decline in total value, as also did magnesite. COST OF LIVING IN CITIES LOWER SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 8.—Total valued and lead since! increased . total value} income from farm mar‘:ctings for the first eight months of this year ag“‘gregated 35 per cent greater than for the corresponding period of last: year, according to the current report of the economic conditions just issued: by the Research Departmen: of the California State Chamber Commerce. Receipts from crops for this eight months period showed a gain of 45 per cent and income from livestock and livestock producis creased 20 per cent. The increases were due principally to higher prices, For the month of August cash farm income was $144,675,000 or 24 of huper cent above the same month of last year. ‘ Although _ total production of fruits and nuts were somewhat below last year’s large crop, the ,con_ dition of’ this crop is reported to be better than average. Increased production is reporied for apples, grapes, pears, prunes, and walnuts, with decreased output for almonds, apricots, cherries, peaches and plums. Production of grains was generally satisfactory in most localities but yields per acre were lower than expected. The outlook for fall and winter truck crops, according to current reports, for heavier. supplies. Farm wage rates advanced sharply during the past year reaching an ayerage of $6.45 per day without board on July 1 of this year or 43 per cent higher than last year. is NOVEMBER 10 On November 10, the world famous U.
