Occupational Differences

are self-employed - show little
worry about employment during
the next year.
1t is interesting that among
manual laborers, where the threat
Of unemployment looms largest
IN the minds of the workers,
membership in a union appears
to offer no. comfort whatsoever.
Just as many union members
think there is a great chance of
their being thrown out OF work
during the year as is the case
with all manual workers. The
same holds true for the proper
ton in both groups who think
there is a slight chance they
may be without jobs.
The fact that unions TODAY can
offer no particular amount of ioh
security for their members I'M
d%oubtedly explains, at least in
part the CLIO drive for the an

COUNCIL CHANGES
OLD CONSTITUTION
Executive Committee Nov
Becomes Board Of d.
rectors Under Set-Up

A new constitution and bylaws
were adopted yesterday by the
Community council during a meet
ing of the executive committee OF
that organization, it was announced
bv Rabbi Samuel A. Friedman,
president.
The organization was founded in
1913 as a committee of the Com
munitv Chest with the Rev. Walter
B. Freed as chairman. 1t operated
under the constitution of the Chest
until Thursday.
Council Objects
The object of the council, &C
cording to Rabbi Friedman, is to
promote the general welfare of the
community through a study Of its
needs and resources; cooperative
planning of its social services:
promotion of social improvements
and creation of public opinion.
Membership in the council is
composed of delegates appointed
by civic clubs, private agencies
and departments of government.
Individual members may also be
appointed by the governing body.
To Share Office
The only major change in the
new constitution provides that the
former executive committee of
eleven members now becomes a
board of directors with fifteen
members, five to be elected each
year for three year terms. The
council will continue to share its
office staff with the Chest, with
George L. Stearns serving as *
ecutive secretary of both organi-
cations.
According to Rabbi Friedman,
the council has already under
taken several major projects since
the annual meeting last January.
Family Service
It has organized, at the request
of the Chest, a new Family Serv-
ice Society, newest member to join
the ranks of the Red Feather
Services.
The establishment of a Mental
Hygiene or Child Guidance Clinic
is also at the top of the council
agenda.
The council was the first to pre-
sent recommendations to the city
government concerning the future
use of the two federal USO build
ings, urging tt e one on Second
street be made available to the
City Recreation Department and
the one on Nixon street to the
Shaw Boys club for use as a
Negro Community center.
Present members of the board
of directors, elected as members
of the executive committee at the
annual meeting last January, in
clude: R a b bi Friedman, presi-
dent; Mrs. William M. Henderson
vice : president; Spurgeon Bailey,
Mrs. Herbert Bluethenthal, DR.. A.

dent, and E L. White, Chest

fear of the economic future.
Fewer than one In every 10
among those now regularly work
ing think there is a great chance
that they will be unemployed dur
ing the next year.
This has important implications
for the entire U. S. economy. A
man who is not afraid of losing his
job tomorrow is inclined TO spend
money for a new car, a new g
frigerator, a new washing machine
for his wife; etc. On the other
hand, the man who fears he may
soon be among the unemployed will
hold onto his dollars.
The general spirit of optimism
which continues to prevail among
workers, in spite of strikes and
shutdowns for lack of materials,
is thus encouraging for the gen
eral economic outlook - at least
for the immediate future.
The poll of workers throughout
the nation was conducted with
the use of this question:
During the next year do you
think there is any chance that you
will be unemployed?"
