Grave Unemployment
Situation In Germany
Dangerous, Il Belief

Conditions In Germany art

tive of the United States Chamber
OF Commerce. declared IN report
received here today.
Approximately one out OF every
three workers In unoccupled Ger
many wns unemployed during the
month Of October, Miles said.
Estimates put the figures for
those wholly unemployed during the
last week in october at two and
three millions," according to Miles
report. Aside from those totally
unemployed, the remaining six or
seven millions are estimated to be
working part time, and of those
half time or less.
For the current month, cOndi-
tons are 90 disturbed that appar-
emily no further estimates have
been ventured. However. it Is re.
ported that unemployment IL still
on the increase and that, were the
figures available, they would GER
talnIy exceed those quoted for the
end Of October.
"Such conditions are fraught with
the Rraveet possibilities. Masses OF
unetnployed cannot be clothed and
fed with q collapsed currency. Food
supplies are Enthusiastically In ex-
istence today, but the difficulty OF
effecting their sale and distribution
must now be exceedingly acute"
