The exercises opened with the “Knight Errant” overture and a march, “The | High School Cadets.” Invocation was | pronounced by Rev. Dr. G. M. Diffen- derfer.

In its monthly survey of business, the federation said that reports from 24 cities showed that unemployment in trade unions increased considerably in January. It said that 19 per cent of union members were out of work in January, as compared to 16 per cent in the preceding month. 38 Per Cent Idle. “In the building trades 38 per cent of members are out of work, the largest proportion for January in three years covered by our figures,” it said. “‘Our report also covers wage earners in shipping, railroads, hotels and restau- rants, chauffeurs and truck drivers, Government work and a number of other trades and professions, including ‘the musicians. “Increasing unemployment in many of these trades together with the lay-off of over 700,000 in manufacturing since September has brought the total unem- ployment in the United States to serious proportions.” Likely to Increase.
