As a matter of fact, the passage of such a resolution is not strictly necessary. The Constitution does not require it but Congress in so acting, puts a legislative brake on itself to indicate its determination that the national debt shall not exceed a certain figure. Prior to the first World War our national debt was approximately one bililon dollars. At the close of the war it had mounted to twenty-six billions. Under the leader*' ship of economy-minded Calvin Coolidge, this was whittled down to sixteen billions in 1926. When the depression hit us during the last two years of President Hoover'* administration, the Order of American Mechanics and the American Federation of Labor."

Norma Scott, Employment Service manger at Woodstock, repotted last week. "Although Woodstock is, at present, in good condition so far as most types of labor are concerned, the local U. S. Envplyment Office is concerned also with placing workers in other localities by means of a clearance system with other offices," said Manager Scott. Engineers of all kinds, machine operators and craftsmen are in particular demand. Any persons with training or experience in such occupations are advised to register, even though they may have been out of their occupation for some time. "In fact, the first logical step for all -porkers who want to serve the nation in its industrial war effort is the registration of their qualifications at the United States Employment Service office for the area in which they live." Workers livnig in McHenry county wg*nt]y requested to place their applications with the Woodstock office at 2)7 Benton street as soon as possible. Residents of other counties •hoyld place theif applications in th.^ir •wir «voonties. Other United States Employment service offices in this section of Illinois *re located in Elgin.

OF MATERIAU FOR HOME MAINTENANCE ' Recent government rulings in regard to home construction of all types has led to much harmful confusion among home owners as to just what they can and cannot do about keeping their homes in shape," says G. H. Johnson of the Alexander Lumber Co. "In many instances home owners have decided not to make much needed repairs and improvements on their homes in the belief that the materials to be used were necessary for war work and that such a move on their par^ migbt .be cqof i4ieci»4 unpatriotic," he said. ^ "Such is not the case at all," declared Mr. Johnson, "as a great many of the materials used in home repair and maintenance are not on the critical list at all. Asphalt roofing and asbestos siding shingles, rock wool insulation, and decorative wallboards, to mention a few examples, are available now in suff icient quantities to meet the needs of home owners. JRepair, to keep homes in good eonion, are certainly necessary to maintain morale," said Mr. Johnson, "and furthermore to prevent depreciation Elizabeth Buss, last weekend.
