Speed Hiring Of StudentWorkers

COURT HOUSE — The Cape May County Commigsion on Student Service has announced a new and much simpler procedure which fanners are to follow to secure student labor this year. Henry H. White, county agricultural agent, announced this week. All that farmers must now do to become employers of such labor is to sign special forms 57 and mail them to White at his Office here. All who send in 57’s are eligible to hire students without going to schools or contact- , ing anyone but the students The only other requirement is that farmers hire students who registered to do farm work aj)d whose 'applications were approved by teachers and parents. Farmers may easily check on students' eligibility through their employ-

ment record cards.

Student labor application blanks have been mailed twice to all county farmers, White said. Additional forms may be secured from school principals/ the U. S. Employment Service at Wildwood

t- White's office.

principals or school office clerks will receive from him each week a list of farmers who have filed

the prescribed forma.

When students return to school after absence for farm work, their absence will be excused if the employer who has signed their record card is a farmer whose name is on the list of eligible «nployers furnished to the school clerks or principals by White, who is secretary of the County Commission on Student Serv ' The new procedure has been approved by Daniel J. Ricker, county school superintendent, who is chairman of the county c mission. Mr. Ricker has quested all school principals cooperate fully and to be s that each approved student has an employment record card ways in hia or her possession. "It is common knowledge that there is an acute _ shortage farm labor here. While it is gretted that the necessity arisen to keep certain students from classes, there is no question about the priority of food production." White said. "Students may be excused only 15 days and such absence will not impair the scholastic standing of able stu-

dents."

Harry W. Henning and Howard J. Shields, of the U. S. Employment Service at Wildwood, are actively assisting in the program of providing student farm labor. Mr. Shields is visiting farms and sctfSbls regularly to keep the program running smoothly.
