With at least three days to be de-

the committee plans to turn its at

AS the 12-man Temporary Ma
tional Economic Committee pre-
pared to take it's initial plunge into
the practices of a specific industry,
1t had as background three full days
OF unspectacular but comprehensive
testimony on American business
trends OF the last 100 years.
The challenge to the committee
and to the Nation, was contributed
yesterday by Leon Henderson, New
Deal economist and executive Sec
rotary OF the inquiry group, in an
estimate that a record high index
of production of 40 would be neces-
sary to give jobs to the unem-
ployment load, currently placed at
1860 900.
Figure at 10l.
At present, the production index
as figured by the Federal Reserve
Board is about 101. while at the
1929 peak it was only 100.
In terms of national income, these
production levels would mean ap-
proximately $4,000 900, 900 at full
employment, as contrasted with
SOL 900 900, 900 in 1929 and about
$62, 900 100000 this year.
In developing his estimates of
production needs, Mr.. Henderson
presented tabular comparisons of
unemployment as balanced against
labor supply of the country. In
March, 1888, for instance, unem-
ployment was estimated at 14,3l7,-
600, with the total labor supply
being placed at o,3OO 900. BY July,
1887, unemployment had dropped
to 7,4l2,0OO despite an increase in
the labor force to $1,000, 900.
Against the current unemployment
load of 1860 900, Mr.. Henderson
