the employment situation in New

he thought, while Gov. Paul A.
Dover of Massachusetts, says. it's
bad and getting worse.
Mr.. Sawyer has been meeting
New England business leaders
here in the first swing on a sur
vey of the Nations economy
which will take him to the West
Coast.
Not critical was the Secre-
tary's comment on unemployment
in New England.

comment on the situation in
Massachusetts,.

Gov. Dever told Mr.. Sawyer
there are $4,000 currently out
of work in his State and that by
September 80 there may be 100,-
600 more.

Dever said. lis the situation worse

insured unemployment"
Mr.. Sawyer said he found. con-
ditions in New England more en-
couraging than Id been led to
believe"

ment by the end of this year even
without Federal aid.
Gov. Dever said his State needs
Federal aid. He asked specifically
for a $2O,0OO,O0O highway grant
and another $12,OO0,0O0 for har-
Dor work.
Ask Luxury Tax Repeal.
The Massachusetts, Governor
also suggested to Mr.. Sawyer that
huge Federal orders were too large
for small business to make bids on
and should be broken down so
that such companies could bid Tor
portions of the orders.
Both the Governor and spokes-
men for the Smaller Business AS
ISOLATION of New England ap-
pealed to the Secretary for repeal
of the 20 per cent luxury taxes.
Mr.. Sawyer told New England
businessmen that the possibility of
increasing their share of Govern
ment contracts is being studied,

textile contracts in the South.

ing. was small. Across the hall,
in her favorite green, was Eva
Braun's cabin. It was under the
bed in her cabin that a medallion
