The official Ebor figures for October in Great Brit- Yain showed 2,176,191 TSONs were out “of work, compared with 1,207,000 at the ssame time last year. Germany has 3,- 500,000 idle, with the number increas- ing rapidly. Italy, under Mussolini, vpow reports more than 400,000 idle. .. The number of unemployed in other veountries even last Summer was three -end a hall times as great in Finland sand Rumania as last year, while the “number almost trebled in Belgium and omore than doubled in France, Nether- lands and Poland.

How about the number of idle in the ‘United States today? According to the Department of Labor, there were .67 r cent fewer persons employed in the r 3 major industrial groups than for the ‘same period of 1929. If this percentage “of reduction is applied to the estimated 747,000,000 people gainfully employed in 1929, it shows an increase of about 4, 300,000 in unemployment over Septem- r, 1929. The Brookmire Economic Service es- \timates 4,300,000 are unemployed. Prof. Squires of Chicago says 5,000,000 people .are out of work. John Fitzpatrick resident of the Chicago Federation of bor, estimates 30 per cent of the “\::nn members in that city are job- Decline in Living Cest. The decline in the cost of living from ‘August of last year to the same month this year, the Brookmire Economic Service’s estimate to be only 6.7 per ‘cent. Wholesale prices, in the mean- _time, have dropped 14 per cent. Thus “retail prices are still relatively high. “It is in the latter item that reductions ,must be made if reductions in wage earnings are to be partially offset,” says this service. ‘What are the prospects for relieving aunemployment this Winter? There is Qittle chance at the present time for in- creased employment in regular lines; so practically the only relief this Winter ‘will be found in the non-productive Swork, which is being planned by the ‘different cities, States and charitable or- ‘ganizations in an effort to alleviate the ptesem. crisis. It is in this fleld that the work of «©ol. Arthur Woods and his staff will be “of especial benefit. Group Insurance. Group insurance is making real head- way in_American colleges and universi- ties. The cheapness and efficiency of the group idea appeals to many of them as it has to some of the larger indus- “trial plants. " _Recently, Dartmouth College entered hw a group life insurance contract with &mm Life Insurance Co. of the United States to insure the lives of 500 ‘members of the faculty and employes of the college for a total of more than ”m 000 college pro- 1uon are el.tgble for ssooo insurance, tants, $3,000, gm other employes $2,000. ‘This form of insurance is being recog- nized as an ideal plan for the officers ind employes of corporations which are Amified and inter-dependent.

This outturn is 32.2 per ‘cent less than in and 604 r cent under same month last year. creased activity during the month by -vme manufacturers who introduced new models was offset by further con- traction of output by Ford and several other companies. With, the unusual caution prevalent in the trade, induced by sh retail demand, further cur- tailment of operations is likely. For full year 1930 an output of 3,500,000 is indicated, a drop of about 40 per cent from 1929. Chain store sales in October, judging by the results so far reported, showed very little change in trend from the preceding month. A te receipts ©f 20 leading companies for the month were 61 per cent under 1929 period. while comparison of about same units in September showed a similar decline.
