The reaaon"tt'a going to be a bad summer is that there an no jobs for the majority of young people who would normally be They eat as though every meal were their last one. They get laz- ier and lazier, staying up late and sleeping in late. They have no money for recreation, and get surlier and surlier. They develop a feeling of being usele and un- wanted, and resent any advice. Too darn bad about the spoiled brats, you say, and I agree. But that doesn't alter the situation.

Is it partly the kids' fault? Yes. Some of them would rather burn all summer than clean themselves up to the minimum standard, of a pretty free society. Others have never done a dirty day's work in their lives, and would not stoop to menial chores. (My first job was cleaning out Iavatories). And a great many of them simply sneer at the whole Protestant work ethic. It's all right for the old man. but I'm going to do my own ttting--- not work. But I think the majority of these kids would welcome a job of any kind. Tough toe-nails for them. There aren't the Jobs. Industry doesn't want them, for practical reasons. They have to be trained for even the simplest fac- tory work, and by the time they're producing, they're off to school again. Industry prefers to hire people who are going to be content to put round pegs in round holes for years, at minimum wages. And speaking of wages, the tourist industry, which used to absorb so much student labor, ean't afford it any more. Minim- um wage laws in Jobs that used to be supplemented by tips have made many resort operators tum their backs on students. Why hire an awkward girl waitress with no experience, at a $1.50 an hour or whatever, when you can hire experienced waitresses from the vast pool of unemployed, for the same figure? Anyone have a job for a 2ihyear- old with big brown eyes, a charm- ing grin and auburn hair? Quali- fications: plays a mean piano and guitar and sings; types as quick- ly and accurately as her father; has a sunny disposition except when she's loafing around home without a job; fair cook; washes dishes faster than an automatic. Oh yes, has a terrific figure. Is it the govemmmt's fault? Partly. The $50 million the federal government put up to alleviate the students' situation was too little and too late, and had so many strings attached to it that Mr. Ben- son might just as well have thrown it into the Ottawa River. Any reader with a modicum of comprehension will have realized by this time that my daughter is home from university without a job. What's the answer?
