EMPLOYMENT DIRECTOR
DIFFERS WITH REPORT

According to a letter received by
the Evening News from X. J. FL
bridge, acting state director of en-
ployment, the unemployment situa-
tion in this section differs radically
from the report recently published
by the Evening News. That article
stated that unemployment was de-
creasing faster in Perth Amboy than
in any other New Jersey city and
that decreased number of unemploy-
ed were shown to have occurred dur
ing February at Camden, Newark,
Trenton, Jersey City and Bayonne,
while slight increases occurred at
Passafc and Paterson. The statis-
tics published showed that there was
a decrease of unemployed in Perth
Amboy, during the month of Febru-
airy.
The state director of unemploy-
ment, IN checking up the statements
which were sent to Washington by
each employment office, finds that
the conditions reported in each town
are exactly the reverse of those pub
lished in the Evening News. In
other words, there are decreased
number of employed in Camden,
Newark, Trenton, Jersey City and
Bayonne, with slight increases of
number employed in Passaic and
Paterson. The error has been in
applying the reported figures against
decrease of unemployment" rather
than against a decrease in employ
ment of number employed"
