S Per Cent Rate Too High
For April marks the second
anniversary of the end of the
1873 recession. In these en-
tire two years of expansion we
have been able to cut the un-
employment rate only to S per
cent, clearly above the rates
recorded at this stage of the
previous two post World War II
recoveries from recession.
The current expansion cycle
is getting fairly mature. If we
enter the next recession with
this percentage of jobless we
can be sure we'll quickly reach
the highest unemployment rates
since the depression '30S.
The overall unemployment
totals hide the concentration OF
jobless among adult men who
are non-white and unskilled
the pools of jobless in chroni-
cally depressed areas.
We may rightfully breathe
easier when the May report on
unemployment is issued, be-
cause it will add weight to the
belief that the winter upsurge
in jobless was due primarily
to foul weather and that we
still are moving along at a high
level of business activity.
But the actual statistics are
neither socially nor politically
acceptable. They provide nc
basis whatsoever for com.

Quite the contrary. they cry

Joblessness Has Plunged This Month
~ SYLVIA PORTER

The number Of jobless In our
nation again has dropped below
the 1000, 900 mark-wiping out
the startlingly steep upswine
which occurred in unemploy-
ment during March's dreadful
weather.
The percentage of our labor
force seeking jobs but unable
to find them has fallen to less
than 5 per cent-reducing the
seasonally adjusted unemploy-
ment rate to around the "a
per cent of February.
Employment on farms, on
construction projects, in plants
and stores has climbed by hun
dreds of thousands in the past

ment back into the seasonal up
trend usual at this time of any
good business year.
These figures will not be re-

The Studebaker
Taxi For 1861

Performance, economy and dura-
bility.
These qualities of the Stude-
baker Taxi, proved by billions of
miles of operation, are enhanced
py engineering improvements for
1861. q
The Studebaker Taxi is not a
converted passenger car" accord
ing to A. e. Fitzpatrick, Stude-
Daker-Packard Corporation fleet
sales manager, 'but a specially
designed severe service vehicle
that Is roomy and comfortable as
well as sturdy"
Fitzpatrick adds that the taxi is
being used increasingly in many
other types of service requiring the
combination of economy and heavy
duty construction. 1t is serving
transportation needs on farms,
ranches, construction projects and
in the oil fields.
For 1861, Studebaker Taxis are
available with either the new "Sky-
bolt" overhead valve six cylinder
engines or more powerful VS.
recommended for both engines.
The new 10 cubic inch six
cylinder engine develops 112 horse
power at $500 revolutions per
minute, with torque rating of
asa at 1000 r. p. m.
A new recirculating ball steer
ing gear, new type knuckle upper
bushing and reduced castor i'm
proves steering efforts 80 per cent
cylinder models, and 10 per cent
on VS. taxis. Recovery and direct
ional stability are improved.
A three-speed, heavy duty trans
mission is standard. The optional
automatic transmission is made
extra rugged and is water cooled.
A four-pinion Twin Traction limit
ed-slip differential is optional.
Notifications of the body lines
have enlarged the windshield and
rear window for greater visibility.
A sway bar of the new linkless
type Is standard on all six cylinder
models, greatly reducing any ten
dencies of the vehicle to sway on
sharp cornering.
Studebaker Taxi components and
hardware are extra strong or
heavy duty for long, severe SER
vice. These include the box-section
frame, springs and shock absorb
ers, radiator, 10.5 inch clutch,
valves, seats and even the floor
mats.
The severe service brakes have
bonded Innings with 1853 square
inches of effective lining area.
Finned drums, front and rear, for
a longer brake life are an ex-
elusive Studebaker Taxi feature.
New standard equipment for 1861
includes safety-padded dash,
newly-designed instrument panel,
