IT'S TAKING THEM Jazz, Plenty of Shows and Midnight Parties Seem to Draw Country BOYS TO THE CITY Farm Labor is Short This Year as a Result—Good Jobs are Now Open (United Praia Service) Chicago, Mar. 31—(Special to Daily Democrat)— Jazz, luxuries, dinners, plenty of shows and late hours, together with easy jobs at high wagos, threatens to cause a labor shortage on farms this year which may cause further increases in living costs, observers here said today. Tempting offers by farmers in the grain belt are /meeting with little response and unless farm help is ob tained shortly farmers will have to work night and day to get in their crops, according to reports. “There is a very great labor shortage on the farms,” said C. S. Boyd, head of a federal state employment agency here. “We receive 50 orders for farm hands daily and are only able to fill ten. "The jobs pay from SSO to SBO a month, with room, board and wasting. This is an increase of 25 per ■ent over last year. Jobs for married couples pay SIOO a month and they ire given a house, garden and a cow” “The lack of farm labor is caused by the fact that the saloons are clos--1 'd and the laborers have lots of 1 money," said Sam Cummings, farm abor agent. “They can get $5 a day ind city life attracts them. With plenty of money to spend they don’t ■are to give up life in the city.” Boyd estimated the shortage on ! the farm will be 30 per cent. "We 1 ’ould place 300 single men at beI tween SSO and SBO a month right now,” said Boyd. “But we can’t get •hem. The farm hands got good lobs during the war and don’t want to give them up. “The shortage will have a bad effect on crops and means higher nrices. If the price goes up the farm . iand will demand more money and hen more increases will follow.” Indianapolis, Mar. 31—'(Special to 1 Daily Democrat) —Food production in Indiana is threatened seriously' by a ■ hortage of farm labor, George C. ' Bryant, field agent of the department of agriculture said today. “Farmers generally contemplate I reducing production about 15 per 1 cent,” Bryant asserted. “This is due mainly to the labor shortage, and the high wages the labor is demanding. Another factor in causing reduction is the fluctuation of prices and the high cost of farm machinery” i St. Louis, Mo., Mar. 31 —(Special to , Daily Democrat) —Farm hands of the southwest with wages paid this year will be able to come back to the country next year as summer board rs, employment agencies and farmers declared tcuay. A serious shortage of farm labor ’ is forecast for Missouri, Arkansas and Southern Illinois, despite highest wages in history. i CUTS THEIR THROATS (United Press Service) ! Elk City, Okla., March 31.—(Special to Daily Democrat)—Mrs. E. J. Bow- i art despondent and in ill-health, cut i I the throats of her five children and I then slashed her own thr o at this . ■ morning. The five children ranging from four i months to twelve years in age are dead. Mrs. Bowart is in the hos- i pital here in a serious condition. — I He Will Not Run i ' (Continued From Page One) United States district attorney and , democratic leader of the state as- - sembly. The boom, according to Igoe, was ( launched on the responsibility of Illi- ■ nois democrats, though it was declared . that it was “believed McAdoo had knowledge of it.” | I With the movement well under way for McAdoo, supporters of AttorneyGeneral Palmer's candidacy are ex- ( pected to open shortly.

Tells the Story (Continued From Page One) right.” “Nobody had come to help us so I thought I had better start for Geneva —it’s a mile and a quarter. I took the two children part way—had them 1 wait, though they were afraid ami j were crying. I had to go back for | mother and the baby, so partly crawling and trying to walk part of the way, I got back to them. Mother, whose collar-bone is broken, could walk a little—l don’t know how. I picked the baby up and took off my peticoat to wrap him in. Then we three started for the other children. I can’t remember much—l guess my leg hurt some, but most when we got to them some men in machines reached! us. We went to the doctor and everything was ‘all right.’ ” Smiling courageously this sixteen- ’ year-old girl continued to recite the details of the attention given them at Geneva and of the trip to the Fort Wayne hospital. As a last request she asked her visitor to write a shoi note to a neighbor near their former home, which luckily was fully covered with insurance, asking him to search the ruins of the place for her wrist watch and anything which might be left of an Easter outfit which had never been worn. “The things were so pretty,” the youngster said and for the first time shed real tears in true girl fashion.
