President Hoover said today that the | Department of Labor had reported for the first time since the stock market crash that the tide of employment had changed in the right direction. ‘The Chief Executive said reports for the last week showed that employment was on the increase and substantially so. | “There has been a distinct increase in employment all over the country within the last 10 days,” President | Hoover asserts, “The tide of employ- ! ment all over the country has changed | in the right direction.” An optimistic report also came from this area in particular, for although there is a surplus of labor, princi- pally unskilled workers and domestic help, the United States Employment Service finds employment conditions satisfactory. Director General . Jones of the employment service today declared that the supply of skilled labor is generally well employed, and the majority of industrial establishments located in ‘Washington are in operation with their usual forces on satisfactory schedules. “Quite a number of persons were given temporary employment in the various department stores,” Mr. Jones , “but they were released at the end of December.

JONES BILL OPPOSED BY LABOR UNION Body Characterizes Political Status of D. C.
