An exercise in Bilingual Rope Pushing
A Latino-oriented Career Fair aimed at recruiting Latinos draws
. . . about 200 people. Wow!
The all day event was held Thursday at the new Salem Conference Center. That wasn't cheap. But then, with most events at the New taxpayer supported Conference Center being held by governments and non-profits I suspect they may have benefited from a volume discount.
Its reported that about 38 organizations, including private companies and government agencies, had booths at the event.

Amazing, about 200 people visited about 38 booths representing private companies and government agencies.
Please note the StatesmanJournal reporter didn't give us the count as to how many booths where sponsored by which? They also didn't count the number of people staffing the 38 booths.
With the government people usually working in groups of three or more, I suspect they totaled between 114 and 152. The reporter possibly left their calculator at home, again. Perhaps a theft concern?
Now, what is that saying about leading a Horse to water?
P.S. Do ya spose the US Border Patrol was an invited Government Agency?

I imagine there would have been a lot more showing up, if not for the fact that they were out "doing the work Americans won't do". Like framing, roofing...that sort of stuff.
