The Secretary- i — I
After July 1st, the Charlotte- town Office will be paying bene- fits to somewhat over 400 people or less than ten percent of the number of claimants in i:nid- winter. The great majority of the claimants have long since gone back to work, but some whose benefits have expired, are still idle. The number still un- employed is believed to be small.
Dominion Government pro- jects on whiairves, harbours and breakwa-ters. all along the coast are gradually absorbing the men still out of work. Provincial Gov- ernment road-work and other un- dertakings, are -also putting many workers back on -the payroll. The builders of private homes are also doing their part in taking up the slack of unemploy- ment. In Charlottetown itself, a number of large construction jobs are making demands on the remaining labour force, not yet employed.
FARM HELP
The Local Office reports that for the first time in many years, very few, farmers are looking for help, indicating the most far- mers have not had too much dif- ficulty in securing assistance.
Looking back over the past six months, officials of the Chat- lottetown Employment Office regard the past winter as the busiest in the history of the of- fice. From early December until well on into April. the office paid thousands of claimants each month, took new claims con- tinually day after day, interview- ed or served upwards of 1,500 peo- ple some weeks and contended with many problems during this busy period.
One of the main troubles in taking claims arose when these arrived at the Local Office in- correctly completed, and in many cases unaccompanied by an in- sunance book. This resulted in needless delays and much paper work.
TEMPORARY OFFICES
It is hoped to forstall much of this trouble and delay next year by setting up temporary offices for a day or two at Souris, Mon- tag-ue a-nd if necessary at other points. By this means it will be possible to take claims on the spot» . . who otherwise would file by mail.
Officiails stress the fact that few people are aware of the vast amount of detail involved in handling more than 4,000 claims mon-th after month. People have some idea of what the Christmas rush means to the stores in Charlottetown. The staff of the Local Office makes the point that the Christmas rush at the National Employment Office commences early in December ano continues until mid April- The Christmas rush period they say lasts for about five months.
During the most tryi-H8 m°n§h5 the office nan extra help. which had to be trained in various phases of t-he work. None of these people in the few months they were attached to the Local Office, could obtain an ovenall understanding of the work. Prac- tical all the senior officials have been on the staff, for ten or twelve years, and they must 95111 undergo daily training to keep abreast of new Procedures and
from hundreds of people-
every now and again, sweeping amendments to the Unemploy- ment Insurance Act.
INSURANCE BRANCH
More than half the staff is em- ployed in the insurance branch of the office, the remainder in the Employment branch. In the In- surance bran-ch several people specialize in certain parts of the work, such as adjudication, claims taking and other divisons of the varied procedure.
Alt the present time, with the number of claims steadily dwindl- ing, the Employment branch is endeavouring to call on as many employers as possible, seeking job vacancies and offering as- sistance to the employers in sec- uring skilled help. At the same time, the Employment branch
interviews scores of people each day who are seeking em- ployment.
STRAWBERRY PICKERS
For the past week, the women's section of the employment branch have been registering children in their early teens, as strawberry pickers. For some years now, the office has been building up a service for the strawberry growers in the vic- inity of Charlottetown, -and as far away as Mount Stewart. Last year they placed upwards of 300 young people in this type of work and, also a number of older people to assist in process- ing the berries for the P. E. 1. Consumers Co-operative Associa- tion. All this involves much organization. Some arrange to pick up a dozen or more pickers at the office each day, or arrange to pick them up at Market Sq- uare. In any case, the Local Of- fice must have the required number of people on the spot, at the time wanted and quite fre- quently they get an emergency order which must be filled as quickly as possible.
The gathering of ten or twelve youngsters on short notice means possibly 20 or 30 telephone calls, before the order is filled and the proper arrangements are made. It can be understood then that during the strawberry season, 100 telephone calls a day for this work alone is necessary, a-nd very often the office staff re- main at night to meet the de- mands of the growers.
Employment official take an optimistic view of the present outlook for employment, and predict a good average year, not much affected by the re- recession.

THOUGHTS FOR OUR TIME
BY HIS EMINENCE CARDINAL McGUlGAN
BUT THE GREATEST OF THESE IS CHARITY
One of the most impontiant teachings of Christ during His life on earth was that of loving our neighbor. This is the second great commandment and it is well for us to think about it of- ten and to examine ourselves on just how well we are faithful to it because Christ has told us: “If any man says he loves God and hates his neighbor whom he sees, how can he love God whom he cannot see?” (I John, 4 20)
In His sermon on the Mount, Christ said: “If, thevrefiovre, thou art offering thy gift at the altar and there thou rememberest thy brother hath anything against the, leave there thy gift at the altar and go first to be reconcil- ed bo thy brother; and then com- ing thou shalt offer thy griflt.” (Matt. 5)
These words are most empha- tic. Christ does not merely exhort us to forgive our neighbor and become reconciled with him when the opportunity presents itself, but rather, we should do it im- mediately even though it entails some great sacrifice on our part. Fraternal charity is so important that Ohrist would have us inter-

mm a sacrifice, the highest act of religious worship, in order to foster it among us.
His command becomes more significant and forceful for us when we realize that among the Jews and Gentiles of Christ‘s time it was unheard of to break off a sacrifice once it had been begun, for fear of the great guilt that would be incurred by such an action.
CHARITY STRESSED
Throughout Sacred Scriptures we are told time and time again of the importance of love of our
neignnor and the virtue of char- ity. “He who loves his neighbor fulfills the law." IRom. I3, 10). “Forgive thy neighbor if he hath hurt thee; and then shall thy sins be forgiven thee when thou prayest." lEccl. 2.)
“All things, therefore’ what- soever you would that men should do to you, do you also to them: for this is the Law and the Prophets.” lMatt.. 7).. “There remain faith, hope and charity,‘
it is far better for us not to say anything at all.
wish him well if we ever hope to love God. We must forgive, him if we WlSI1 God to forgive us. If we do not forgive him. then our prayer itself will condemn us when we say: “Forgive us ouriference trespasses as we forgive t-hoseiatomic energy meets at Geneva the Quebec City council for 25 , who trespass against us.”

these three: but the greatest of these is charity." (I Cor. 13, 13).
There exists a mysterious iden- tity between Christ and Christians so that, by coming to the aid of a member of Christ, we come to the aid of Christ Himself. This explains the necessity and im- portance of loving our neighbor. Nowhere is this identity brought home to us so forcefully as in Christ’s account of the Last Judg- ment as related in the gospel of St. Matthew, Chapter 25:
‘DID IT FOR ME’
After the just have been brought into the kingdom that had been prepared for them they ask, “Lord, when did we see Thee hungry, and feed thee; or thirsty, and give thee to drink? And when did we see thee a stranger, and take thee in; or naked, and clothe thee? Or when did we see thee sick, or in prison, and come to thee?” And answering, the King will say: “Amen, I say to you, as long as you did it for one of these, the least of my brethen, you did it for me.
Again in the account of the conversion of St. Paul, Christ identifies Himself with all Chris- tians when He says, “I am Jesus, whom thou art persecutiiig." (Acts, 9 SI.
’ It is well for us to keep these words in mind when we are tempted to snub or criticize our neighbor. When we cheat him or lie about him, when we re- fuse to forgive him or speak harshly of him, we are doing all of these things to Christ Him- self. If we cannot find something good to say about our neighbor
