' The Toronto Globe says:--With his pockets bulging with applications for the job of manager of the Toron- to International League team, Presi- dent McCaffrey arrived in town yes- terday. Included in the lot of sever- al well-known pilots "Wild Bill" Donovan was. considered for a time, but his appointment yesterday to the management of the Jersey €ity team takes him off the list. The National Commission aroused the ire of the Toronto club by an- nouncing that Schultz 'and Lalonge, who jumped Toronto for Kaygsas City, rere free agents, but President Me- Xattroy has arrived at a satisfactory arrangemient with. the Kansans, Frank Truesddle who was also de- clared a free agent, and who jumped to Boston Americans, has been ad- judged the property of the Leafs. President McGill of the. Indiana- polis club has' been ordered to show that he did not interfere with a play- er under contract when he negotiat- ed with Lajoie, then the property of the Toronto club, to become, manag- ér of the Hoosiers, Several major league teams have been engaged.to play the Leafs here during the season and a nuniber of games have also been arranged be- tween various teams of the Ameri- can and National Leagues. No dates have been fixed because of the fact that the International League sche- dule has not yet been drafted. There will be some changes in the composition of the league, but- that entire matter has been placed in the Bands of President Fultz. New. Baseball Agreement, The concluding session of a week of conferences between major and minor league baseball club owners was held in New York Saturday, the principal business being the signing of a new working agreement to-take the place of the national agreement of the two major organizations and the Association of Minor Leagues. The minors now will be under con- +rol of their own board of arbitration antil 1921. All players must be pur- chased from the minors for cash and drafts, and optional agreements with the National Association have 'been discontinued. In case of future disputes, it has been proposed that minors and maj- ors each appoint a representative, and these two will appoint a referee. This committee of three will adjust all differences which may arise, With the decision tq return to a normal salary list, in the National club éwners are planning to be more liberal with their spring training plans, . - -» : u Three Brothers Killed.

Employment Offices are being set up throughout Canada--a single, complete chain from East to West. In all, some 60 Employment Olfices are being established. They will: «2 be located in all centres of 10,000 people and over--and wherever the need for them etists. One-third are already in operation. Through these Government Employ- ment Offices, all persons in need of employment, both male and female, will secure such positions as are available. Through this -same sourge an em- ployer's particular needs will be promptly filled. Gk Indeed, the service rendered by these Government Employment Offites will be such as to warrant the heartiest™eo- operation and support on the part of employers of labor. They will endeavor to supply only such help as ai employer gan confidently take on--the right man for the right position, Thus, to the small employer of labor, they 'will take the place of the Employ- ment manager. To the large employer of labor they will be of appreciable assistance. R The service of the Employment Offices will be given both to employers and to those who seek employment entirely without charge. . How They Work. ; "A superintendent is in charge of each local Employment Office. Inside the office he has interviewers, to confer with those seeking employment and to direct ther to positions. In the larger cities he also has canvassers or salesmen to call off the employers and show them the value of the services rendered by the Employment Office. In this way the work-seeker and the work-giver are quickly brought together. Every effort is made to secure up-t date, business-like offices, conveniently located. for the Soldier. > aed Sahel it office there A 5 of ¢mpleyers and employees. : Each province will have a similar advisory e¥¢ will 'alto be '4 Dominion body=the Soldiers" Civil Re-Establishment--a man _ who has served overseas. He introduces the returned soldier to the regular officials - and gives him every assistance, both as to employment and other matters. The Organization. The local offic€s in each province are linked together by a provincial clearing. house m the capital city. : hey are directly supervised by a general superintendent who. receives daily wired reports from each office. 'These reports state how many have sought work, how many have been placed - in positions, how many and what classes need work, how many positions vacant. The general superintendent has each day a complete picture of the employment situation in the province under his care. With 'the same idea in view," the Dominion Govérnment has three national clearing-houses-- established at Halifax, Ottawa, and Winnipes. Those who plan to move from one locality to another can thus go, "with their eyes open," because these clearing-houses show from their daily peports just what the employment prospects are--everywhere, . x i» National Advantages. With 'the completion of this single chain of Employment ces the Government will be exactly informed on employment cogditiohs. Expert field agents will call'on the lumbering, mining, shipbuilding and other industries to secure information as to anticipated requirements for labor. . . Weekly reports sent in by trade unions provide additional information, x Finally, every concern with 25 or more emt ployees will mail each week a post-card showing (a) the pay-roll of the previous week; (b) changes in staff and the nature of the occupations."
