Hiring this part-time holiday help extends past the sales departments as larger stores take on additional audit and credit department personnel. Obtaining the needed help is no easy matter, personnel managers admit, because "the competition, is tough." Some stores display "help wanted" signs and recruit through employment bureaus at area colleges. Word of mouth always brings in large numbers of persons and the stores also use the State Employment Service.

The State Labor Department yesterday predicted that employment in Monroe County would reach 294,000 by the end of the year, saying the gain will come chiefly in employment of temporary holiday help. However, the state agency said that following the Christmas rise total employment will probably drop to 285,000 in January because of seasonal layoffs in construction, food processing, agriculture and retail trade. By EARL CALDWELL Tucked away in the classified ads a few days back was this help wanted item: "Santa Claus; part-time, -evenings. Midtown department store, apply in person." Finding a Santa is only part of the employment problem Rochester merchants face as the Christmas holidays draw near. Thousands of other jobs, both full and part-time, must be filled to serve the anticipated surge in holiday shopping.

Already special stock and marking crews have been taken on by the larger department and specialty stores. Toylands are in the process of enlarging their sales forces which, by Christmas Eve, will be eight times what they were a month ago. Sales forces in other departments will increase too. The bulk of this increase, according to our personnel manager, comes just after the Thanksgiving weekend. Although the Santas are would be when in full operation," he said.

Another speaker, former Rochester City Manager Robert P. Aex, called for support of the "watchdog" organization, predicting that the cost of local government will double within the next 10 years. "Federal taxes may go down," Aex said, "but the state and local government taxes will go up and the balance will be in the wrong direction." Aex, now vice president and comptroller of B. Forman said that a C.P.E.S. survey 10 years ago in New-burgh, where he was then serving as city manager, resulted in the abolition of a city sales tax.

Instead of the tax, he said, "bread-and-butter" financial policies were instituted which actually resulted in improvement of community services. Preftct Feeds 5.000 Sq.

"There is a great appeal in 'he spending of public money because it doesn't appear to belong to anyone," Shoemaker said. "Unless someone raises questions to alert those who must pay the bill, unless someone provides information, leadership and organization, there will be no opposition." Shoemaker said the state's fiscal operations, "are being conducted through a proliferation of financing agencies, a multiplicity of separate funds and a maze of inter-fund transactions." These, he added, "obscure public understanding of the budget and the results of the state's operations." "We are told the state is operating on a pay-as-you-go basis," Shoemaker said.

"It is as the great burden bearer of freight that railroading shows its brightest potential for the future," Daniel P.

"The time to exercise control over spending policies is when they are proposed, not when they are put into effect," Shoemaker said. He explained that this year's state budget contains 33 programs costing $293 million. Just one of these programs, public housing, was in existence 20 years ago, Shoemaker contended.

Shoemaker said his organization is pressing for a law requiring that every bill introduced in the State Legislature have a "price tag" attached. "This price tag would be in the form of a fiscal note He addressed members of the Rochester Railroad Association in the Sheraton Hotel. Loomis, of Washington, D.C., said that if railroads hold their present share of traffic volume, normal economic growth trends would make their 1975 freight load one-third greater than now and double that by 1988. "This," said Loomis, "is why I believe that railroading faces its greatest challenge right now and over the next few years. The further ahead we look, the clearer becomes the nation's dependence on low-cost, high-volume transportation and this means railroads." The speaker listed the industry's unfolding merger movement as one of the key factors in generating greater railroad economy and efficiency.

"More than 20 major railroads are now engaged in merger proceedings, promising a fundamental reshaping of the entire rail network and an ultimate streamlining of our 100 Class 1 railroads and many smaller lines into a smaller of larger systems, with sharply reduced operating costs and expedited through movements." Loomis said there is "one major dark cloud" shadowing the bright picture of railroading. It is, he added, "the continuing inequities we confront in outmoded and painfully unequal government transportation policies." Turning to the passenger field, Loomis said authorities are now recognizing that crowded cities and spreading urban regions must have healthy rail transit as well as highways if they are to live, breathe and prosper.
