Better Employment Conditions
Prevail in City and State
During January
BY GEORGE I'll. MANNING

WASHINGTON, Feb. 9.-Thes Ia
Dor employment situation through
out New Jersey, and quite generally
In the other states, continued decid-
edly encouraging during January,
and showed still further Increase.
IN the number of those employed in
spite of unfavorable weather for put

So great is the demand for labor
IN the state that thousands Of work
ers were entirely absorbed in othe,
industries and the demand has still.
not been met, according to tn,
monthly report on employment con-
ditions made by the employment
service, U. S. Labor Department for
January, and made public today.
The reports made to the Employ.
ment Service by it's agents in every
industrial center reviewing the la.
Dor situation for the past month ant
comparing employment conditions on
January 81, with those of Decembe
81, shows that the shut dowr
around the first of the year for the
making of inventories in MANY
plants was not for so long duration
as usual because of unusual demand
for products.
employment decreases observed in
some ind lstries were seasonal and
only temporary. The great volume
of building construction under way
and contemplated continues to in
crease and apparently has not yet
reached the peak.
AT Perth Amboy the general in
dustrial and employment situation
continued it's improvement during
January. The demand for common
labor is increasing. There is short
age of mechanics in the building in
dustry and railroad shops. Female
help is scarce.
Continued improvement in general
business activity and in the labor
situation vas reported from Jersey
City, Camden, Trenton, Paterson,
Bayonne and Newark.
The report of the Employment
Service for New Jersey in general for
the state reads as follows:
A very marked and steady i'm
provement in employment reflects
the high rate of industrial activity IN
manufacturing plants and factories
throughout the state. Operations in
several industries in eastern districts
are affected by temporary railroad
embargoes to permit transportation
of coal supply. Operations in basic
industries indicate majority of plants
have attained normal capacity and
are more than seasonably active.
Shortages of skilled and semi skilled
workers and common labor obtains
in all parts Of state. Farmers calling
for help. Automobile plants, metal
and machine industries. shipyards,
radio lines, iron and steel plants, To-
connective works, silk mills and build
ing trades employing more workers.

new TRAFFIC SIGNALS NOW
IN USE ON POLICE BOOTH

A new system of handling traffic
from the booth located at the cor
ner of New Brunswick avenue,
Fayette and Division streets, was
successfully tried out yesterday aft
ernoon. a system of red and green
lights having been installed, which
worked to the complete satisfaction
of Alderman Albert G.. Waters,
chairman of the police committee,
who supervised the installation.
The new system consists of ten
tights, a set of red and green lights
facing each of the five approaches
to the booth. When the green light
is flashed, meaning go ahead" for
one street, the red lights appear,
stopping the traffic on the others.
The red or green lights are much
easily sen than the go" or stop"
signs formerly used, and traffic is
speeded up under the new system,
as the officer on duty can quickly
flash the lights from red to green,
or reverse, whereas, under the old
system. the officer had to turn the
lever, which, in turn, caused the
large signal on the yop of the booth
to rotate, Alderman Waters points
out.
The lighting system was worked
u after considerable ana
experimenting by Alderman Waters,
City Electrician Jay Is FRANKIE and
City Mechanic James Secrecy.

whereby the lights might be con-
