NEW YORK, April 17.—The National Industrial Conference Board estimated today that a 30-hour week for Ameri- can mining and manufacturing indus- try, as proposed in the Black bill in Congress, would increase employment by about 1,000,000. Estimates before Congress placed the figure at 6,000,000. The board's estimate was based on reports from more than 1,000 manufac- turing establishments, which, in Febru- ary, employed about one-sixth of the industrial workers who had jobs. The reports covered some 35 divisions of manufacturing industry and showed average hours per week to be 32.6 for February. Hours in the textile finish- {ing group were 44, as compared to 16.9 in iron and steel. These two figures represented the range in the 35 di- visions. To arrive at its estimate of 1,000,000 additional employment the conference board said it segregated “the reports of plants working longer than a 30-hour jweek and computed the number of ad~- ditional workers that presumably would be required to deliver the number of man hours of work reported if the week were reduced to 30 hours.” THE ATHER District of Columbla—Cloudy, slightly cooler tonight; tomorrow generally fair; | gentle to moderate south shifting to | southwest winds, Maryland—Mostly cloudy tonight and tomorrow; showers tonight and in ex- treme west portion tomorrow: not quite 50 _warm in central portion tonight.
