CAPITAL EMPLOYMENT
SITUATION FAVORABLE
Rufus s. Lusk Tells Rotarians Only
1.S Per Cent Are Out of Work.
Cities Compared.

The employment situation In Wash
ington is more favorable than in certain
other cities of comparable size of popu-
lation or located in this section Of the
country, Rufus s. Lusk told members of
the local Rotary Club at its session
yesterday.
A study Of the latest figures on I'M
employment, In comparison with the
preliminary 1890 population statistics,
he said, shows the total population un-
employed in Washington to be 1.8 per
per cent; Baltimore, % per cent; Bos-
ton, 3.5 per cent; Richmond, 25 per
cent; New Orleans, 3.6 per cent, and
Buffalo, Al per cent.
If Washington had the same percent
age of unemployment as Baltimore,
there would be 10,774 persons out of
work here, he said, instead Of $3.50,
which has been found to be the number
unemployed here.
