Employment
Increase In
State Noted
Especial to The Citizen,

TALLAHASSEE, Nov % =
Estimated employment in manu-
featuring during October in
creased by 1000 over October
1916, reaching a total of 10000
: according to Carl B. Smith.
chairman of the Florida Indus,
trial Commission.
This increase in employment
was achieved in spite of the fact
that later citrus season this
year resulted in substantial re-
duction in canning and preserv-
ing employment as compared
with year ago. Employment in
lumber manufacturing expert
enced the largest increase from
last year. This is direct result
OF the record-breaking amount
OF construction activity being
undertaken throughout the state.
The largest relative increase in
employment was found in the
printing and publishing indus
try indicating the availability of
increased supplies of paper.
There was also a significant in
crease in employment by corr
Germs manufacturing pulp paper.
Besides canning and~preserving
|. there was some. decrease in en-
picyment in shipyards and in the
manufacture of chemicals, chief
fy fertilized,
Principally as a result of sea-
sonal factors, manufacturing en-
ployment in October exceeded
September employment by 1000.
. Major increases occurred in can
ming and preserving as citrus
fruit began to be harvested and
in cigar manufacturing as a re-
suit of increased cigar produc-
ton for the Christmas trade.
The beginning of the citrus
season was also reflected in in
creased employment in the
manufacture of crates and in the
manufacture of tin cans. There
was also a considerable increase
in employment in lumber manu-
featuring as recent floods in the
woods have subsidized. Only the
shipbuilding and repair industry
experienced reduced employ
ment from September as a num-
Der of repair contracts were COM
pleted.

Bob Nussbaumer was in town

If you have a young son who
might some day decide he wants to
open an Italian restaurant, you'd
better start preparing him now.
Training for that sort of thing be-
gins early. Or should begin early.
Rocco Terrone, the pianist who
now has his own restaurant, called
Rocco's, up on Connecticut avenue,
was talking about it the other night.
Rocco's has made quite reputation
around town for it's authentic food.
Representative Vito Marcantonio,
an old italian food fancier, says it's
the best of its kind outside of New
York.
Well, the food is all prepared to
his own recipes, Rocco says. MY
mother was funny about that" he
adds. "She thought all the boys
should learn to cook or they'd starve
after they got married"
| Having also learned to play the
piano at an early age. Rocco is
ideally prepared for his present
chore. After he gets the food under
way in the kitchen, he takes over a
large grand piano to prove his mu-
sical talent equal to his culinary art.
His approach is firm and his tech
nique colorful, no musical selection
getting out of his grasp without
having had all SO Of the pianos keys
applied to 1t.
Bob Ellis, the Wardman Park
Metronome Rooms new singer, is a
young man who knows the touch Of
ham is upon him and he might as
we'll face it. He was talking the
other night, between appearances,
about his movie career, which, to
date, has not been what you would
call auspicious. He did have bit roles
in 10 or II films while under con-
tract to M-G-M. but he made more
personal appearances than motion
pictures.
I'm sure of one thing" Bob said.
I'LL never work for Metro again.
Never. that is" he went on after
a Drle1 retrospective pause, until
there's good part open there that
they'd use me for"
Mr.. Ellis is singing at the Metro
nome Room, incidentally, instead of
vacationing because his vacation
brought him to Washington for a
visit with his father, a retired naval
officer. Bob's baritone voice is more
robust now than the soprano in
which he sang as an 11-year-old
choir boy. He uses it to good ad-
vantage in the popular tunes he
sings these nights for the Metro
nome Room customers
