There and Here and There Comment on Returning Soldiers

War department and Red Cross worry about returning soldiers facing no jobs though soldiers claim many positions await them. The writer notes young Kentucky men seeking farm work and being offered courthouse labor, questioning the necessity of the concern.

Soldier boys urged to seek work and harvest fields

The letter urges soldier boys to find jobs in the country and on farms, arguing they should work without Red Cross interference. It criticizes Red Cross and officials for promoting broad relief jobs and notes wartime debates, local editorials, and political opinions about Wilson and the League of Nations. It mentions governors, inspectors, and various Indiana towns and newspapers.
