When you level out the figures you
find industry jumped its production ~
per cent since May. while employment
increased only 10 per cent and pay rolls
only 8 per cent.
1t is pery easy to see lchat has
happened Industry uent on cheap
production spree. 1t held do1cn on
employment and ,rages. 1t ,panted
to beat the gun ON imitation and the
codes. 1t produced at pre-iRfdtion
and pre-code costs, intending TO sell
at imitation and code prices
That is the picture up to August !
Since then everything has changed
The codes have been signed. Produc-
ton now is more costly. AS a result
1t is falling off.
The expert guess is that the industrial
production index for this month will be
81, off T.
No one has a very clear idea what
that will do to factory employment and
pay rolls.
The best guess is that they will re-
main about the same for August a:
July.
That supposition is based on the i'm
preston that the N. r. A. has not forced
substantial Unemployment in the
face OF reduced production.
Apparently it has prevented employ
ers from firing men who would have
been let go during a bad month
Possibly 100000 have been rf-em.
ployed. About the same number may
have been laid off.
Judgment regarding that should be
withheld until more definite line on
the situation is available. Chart shows
comparisons
The monthly chart on which these
deductions are based, follows:
Evening star., 1933-08-26

The improvement is largely due to
the public building program. About
s19OOO,00O of Government contracts
were let in July. About s27 900, 900 dur
ing the first week of August.
The public works program Is moving
faster, but the pace is pitifully slow. "a
year ago S31 10000 was spent for pub
lie works during the first two weeks
of August At that rate they will be
a long time putting out the $4,000, ,OOO,-
600 set aside for that purpose.
Obviously, substantial unemployment
relief must come from other sources.
Treasury estimators are at work
privately trying to figure out ho10
the Liberty bond issues may be re-
financed. II the bonds are to be
called, sir months notice must be
serued September IS and October IS.
The idea is that the Government
might promise to pay of in cash all
those who decline to take refunding
issue at lower interest rate. The
question is how many bond holders
would demand cash and whether the
Treasury could stand it.
If the plan is adopted it will not in
clude the issuance of paper money to
finance the deal The administration
is not ready for anything like that.
