For the Germans to take part
in the conference as full parti-

at least imply recognition of
their authority to deal directly
with the West on any questions
concerning Germany, including
that Of Berlin.

MOSCOW, May IL (APl.-
RusSia's first census in 20 years

The increases reflect the de-

These parts have been thinly

The census report did not
give totals on the shift to the

COMMITTEES to clarity Mr..
Strauss thinking on two ques-
tions before acting on his nom-

One is whether Mr.. Strauss
recognizes Congress as a policy

appointed official to withhold
information from a committee
of Congress.

have told a congressional com
mittee two years ago that he
did not believe Congress had
the right to direct the Presi-
dent and the Atomic Energy
Commission on the policy of

Senator Mccarthy argued
that the Constitution clearly
places policy-making in the
hands Of Congress. The second
question, relating to the with

1 in with the controversy on the
Dixon Yates contract, and al

Unemployment
Figures Drop
By735,OOO
IS Million Jobs
Set April Record;
3.6 Million Idle
BY RICHARD FRYKLUND
star staif writer

Unemployment fell by 735.000
persons last month-twice the
drop of a normal April, the
Labor and Commerce Depart
Iments announced today. Total
employment hit a new record
for April-65 million jobs.
There are almost always more
jobs available in April than
earlier in the year because of
"a rise in farm work. But the
number Of jobs increased by
IL million this April, twice the
usual seasonal upturn.
Many of the jobs went to
persons previously not seeking
work-technically not part Of
the labor force. Some 735,000
of the new jobs went to persons
previously unemployed.
3.6 Million Idle
Unemployment is now at 3.6
million. In percentage figures,
adjusted for the usual seasonal
boom, unemployment now is
5.3 per cent Of the labor force.
down from 5.8 per cent in
March and about 6 per cent
during the winter months.
The extra pickup in jobs was
attributed by the Labor and
Commerce Departments to the
construction industry and
brisk hiring" in "hard goods
manufacturing.
On the whole, the admins
tration saw the new figures as
"a cause for rejoicing. Unem-
ployment not only is going
down faster than would be exs
pected but the drop has ex-
ceeded recent predictions.
On the other hand, long term
unemployed are increasing. Per-
sons out Of work for four
months or more now total 38.5
per cent of the total un-
employed.
A year ago long-term unem-
ployed totaled 1858 per cent.
In l948 the figure was 26.2 per
cent.
Normal Occurrence
A Labor Department spokes-
man indicated, however, that
this was a normal, even if re-
grettable, recession occurrence.
In the 1880 and the So IS
recessions, the percentage of
long-termerS also increased
toward the end of the slump.
More persons had more time to
be out of work.
Employment in manufac-
turing rose by 10000 last month
to Is million instead of showing
the usual seasonal decline, the
Labor Department reported.
This April there we're 100000
more factory jobs than a year
