Labor Surplus Still Marked in
All Parts of U. S., Federal
Reserve Board Finds.

Unemployment due to reduced
volume of trade continues to be
an unfavorable factor in the gen.
eral economic situation, the Fed
eral Reserve Board has announced.
Except for better labor demand
In few special industries because
OF seasonal orders, the board found
employment still at lower level
than in former seasons.
The only bright spots in the dis
turbed labor situation were noticed
by the board in these parts OF the
united states where much unem-
ployed labor has been absorbed by
the demand from the country dis
tricts. sharp increase in activity
IN these districts, attracting an in
dustrlal surplus from other section,
10 largely seasonal. and is not re-
garded by officials as an improve
ment Of permanent nature. Larger
operations In few selected indus
tries, notably automobiles, textiles
and footwear. reduced the ranks OF
the jobless in those Industries. but
the effect upon the labor situation
az whole was considered neglible.
Review OF the labor situation in
March revealed generally a larger
labor surplus in all parts of the
United States. chiefly in the larger
Industrial and commercial centers of
the East and Middle west
Farm boys who left for the big
towns during the war period are not
drifting back in any large numbers,
the farm demands for labor being
largely met by recruits from men who
have spent much of their lives in the
cities. but now. out of work, are
turning to the country districts for
employment.
Records of free employment bureaus
in many important centers reported
to the'board indicate there is a larger
demand for office jobs than for
those requiring manual labor
