Finance. insurance and real estate businesses declined Q per cent.
 c. What businesses would you sug- gest as offering most opportunity?
 A. Studies of the U. s. Depart ment of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics indicate immediate post war increases in construction activ- tiles and smaller increases in retail. wholesale and service fields. Also. immediate increased postwar activ- lty Is indicated in the paper, lumber and furniture industries tn addition to the manufacture of consumer and durable goods such as refrigerators. automobiles. etc.

5000, 900 More Jobs In Postwar, SayU.S. Mfrs.
May Top 100000 Survey Shows; RecOnversiOn
 to Be Rapid

at least one-third over the pre.war labor force in manufacturing, Ira Mosher, president of the National Asshociation of Manufactu ra, points out in revealing results of a fact-finding survey of the plans of l,756 individuals manufacturers lo- cated in 43 States.
 Since manufacturing normally employs about 25 per cent of tho nations total working force, pest war employment could be put at 5000 900, Mir. M0sher said, ie other elements of the nations economy should make similar fine creases.
 Confidence Needed
 "This volume of employment must necessarily depend", the Inanufac- turers' head emphasized, upon a favorable economic climate, upon how quickly the government lifts it's ban on reconversion, and upon national confidence shared by all elements of our society,""
 Ninety-nine per cent of the 1,756 manufacturers who rep0rt- ed their postwar employment programs are small to medium companies, Mir. Mosher explained, and the total does not include such major employers as General Motors, U. $. Steel, General Elec- tric, A. T. and T., and Westing- house.
 "Without Delay"
 Sixty.one per cent of the manu- featuring concerns reported they have no serious reconversion prob lem, and could get the production of peacetime goods started without any delay" Twenty-eight per cent reported they would require from one day to four weeks, and after eight weeks 95 per cent of all manufacturing companies will be in peacetime production.
 Outlays of more than $500 ,000, 900 to finance the transition from var production to peacetime output are expected to be made by 88l of the companies who reported in the sur. vey
 Small companies, the survey showed. are marked for the sharpest job gains. Those with less than 100 employees axpect to go to n per cent above prewar level, as an average, while med- ium- -size companies uO0 to B. 900 empl0yes) expect a gain of S@ per cent.
