plOyed During Month Of
%lin August

Washington, Sept. G.~An Increase
Of LOS per cent in the nnmber Of per-
sons employed in G5 principal indus
trial centers in August as compared
with July, was shown by statistics
made public by the department of
labor. The figures were taken from
the payrools of 1923 firms, each usu-
ally employing 500 or more persons.
Industrial classifcativns showed in
creases in the number employed in
food and food products, textiles, and
their products, iron and steel, leather
and its finished products, stone, clay
and glass products, metals and pro-
ducts other than iron and steel, to-
bacco manufacturers and railroad re-
pair shops. All other Industrial class
itications show decreases.
While it is true that the country
has "at last definitely set out on the
long up hill climb to normal Gondi-
tions," the statement. said, lit would
be a mistake to imbue the fEures
with significance not strictly in ac-
cOrdance with facts. 1t must be
Dorne in mind that the improvement
shown can be traced, in a great
measure to the vast agricultural ac-
tivities and that as yet the major
manufacturing, mining and transpor-
tatiOn interests have given less con-
elusive evidence Of the value and per-
manency Of such small grains as they
may have experienced.
"A happy augury is the very gen.
eral increase in building operations,
the survey showing That present ac-
tivities in this line are greater than
at any time since the nation entered
the war"
Other encouraging features pointed
out by the statement were the bOun-
tiful harvest, indications Of improve
ment in iron and steel, marked re-
employment in railroad occupations,
but approaching depletion Of manu-
facturedstocks and continued strength
of textilks, particularly of cotton.
Businessmen generally, the state

lief that the worst part of the depres-
