EMPLOYMENT GAINS ALL OVER COUNTRY Strikers Fail to Check Industrial Advancement, Goveroment Shows Washington, July 10.—In announc- ng today the result of the govern- ent's industrial survey for June, rancis L. Jones, director general of he United States employment service aid: “The nation is striding vigorously oward industrial prosperity, employ- ent increasing throughout the coun- ry. . This increase is remarkable for he reason that it {s made despite the nsettled conditions caused by the oal, textile and railroad contreversies. “‘Another noteworthy feature is the ‘gct that all industries but stone, clay nd glass products show an increase n employment. The decrease in the ptone, clay and glass industries is/ argely due to the seasonal lay-off in jpome centers in June, which was ma- erlnl]y shortened as contrasted with revious years." l The survey embraces 355 principal ndustrial centers . Of sixty-five lead- ing cities, ffty-two report employ- lnent in creases during June over May. [New York is among these. Thirteen eport decreases. They are Memphis Providence, New Haven, Perth Am- poy, San Francisco, New Bedford, rock!on. St. Paul, Flint (Mich.), Manchester (N. H.), Passaic, Camden, [N. J.) and Atlanta. Bi1,e Employment Gain Classified. Industrial classifications showing ncreases in employment are vehicles | nd land transportation; railroad re- pair shops; iron and steel and their products; lumber and its manufac-| ure; food and kindred products;| etal and metal products, other than| ron and steel; textiles and their prod- cts;, tobacco manufactures; liquor | hnd beverages; paper and printing; iscellaneous industries, and chem- cals and allied products, “This survey,” said Director Gen- ral Jones, ‘comprises employment; onditions in every line of trade and| ndustry in all parts of the country, Acluding 1,428 concerns each usually mploying 501 or more. “Building activities are developing| 0 such an extent that a shortage of | killed building craftsmen is becom- ng apparent in many sections of the| ountry. The extremely hot weather | his bout with Jack Dempsey. lhas hastened wheat cutting in Kansas hnd Nebraska, which, coupled with| ransportation difficulties, has caused temporary shortage in the harvest elds of the middle west | “The country is steadily but surely orging its way toward a period of| ndustrial prosperity in which it is| possible that the laber supply will| ot equal the demand. As contrasted | ith opinion six months ago, a nmv} pf eptimism pervades practically | pvery industry in every section of the ountry.” i 4 In New York City. | Employment and industrial rnnrllr‘ ons in New York city are thus sum- rized: | “No cessation appeéars in the indus- | rial revival.

Exceptional activity con-| tinues in the building industry, the| shortage of mechanics becoming acute. Building material manufac- turers are operating at normal ca- pacity.

Conditions in Massachusetts, ac- cording to the Employment Service, are as follows: | “Industrial conditions show steady | improvement. Unemployment is heav- | fest in textiles, due to labor controver- sies. Shoe industry is fast approach- | ing normal.

An early harvest sea- son has accentuated the demand Thousands of men are being sent to middle west states by the Farm Labor Bureau Cambridge, Mass,, July 20.—The Harvard Economic Service in a fore- cast issued last night predicts that “the business recovery now {n pro- gress will develop into general busi- ness prosperity.” “A possible coal shortage during the summer months or a tie-up of rail- road traffic due to the strike of rail- rcad labor,” the forecast says, may “result in temporary setbacks. Such | factors have not in the past had last- ing effects and should not now be ex- pected to reverse the general move- ment. Only when the financial strain | resulting from busintss expansion be- | gins to make itself felt need we look | forward to such a reversal, and this | development is obviously not to be ex- pected until a very much greater busi- ness expansion occurs than has so far taken place." It predicts that advance {in wholesale prices will continue, adding “Money rates continue to decline, so that the first stage of the sequence of movements leading to lower com- modity prices has not arrived.
