The outlook through m d-Janvary.
The surveys showed that un-
employment had increased to
some extent in three-fifths OF the
areas largely as a result of en-
ployment losses in manufacture
ing affecting both durable and
nondurable goods. However, in
most instances the increases were
OF relatively small or moderate
proportions, with the result that
job totals in most sections Of
the country continued to be re-
ported at relatively high levels.
The Bureau said that employer
estimates as to their future hir-
ing requirements pointed to a
temporary employment rise in
some areas just prior TO the holi-
day shopping season followed by
perhaps slightly more than
seasonal decline in nonfarm pay
rolls to midwinter.
All of the $50 major areas are
classified bimonthly according to

Fan Spots Dear Abby
Promptly on Arrival
BY HAYNES JOHNSON
star stan Writer

Mrs. Morton Phillips stepped
from a plane last night at Ma
tional Airport and Immediately
met one Of her fans.
She was calling her husband
from the airport book shop to
tell him that she had arrived
safely. The young man in
charge stared at her and asked,
Isn't that Dear Abby?"
Indeed 1t was, he was told.
I've seen you on television
but I never thought I'd meet
you" said Ron Broadstone Of
% South Hudson street, Arling-
ton.
Abby, wearing a leopard skin
coat with q bright red hat, red
scarf and black gloves, smiled
and then smiled more broad
ly when she found out that her
books were all sold out there.
Then the syndicated column
ist for The Star walked to the
car which took her into Wash
ington. On the way Abby
launched into her favorite sub
jects-teen-agers.
Their greatest problem? I'd
say they feel their parents
don't trust them. And I'd say
they're right.
THE parents too often don't
trust them. The remember
their own mistakes and try to
shield their children. But, of
course, that doesn't work. It
never does.
Mrs. Phillips, who writes un-
der the name Of Abigail Van
Buren, says another typical
teen-age problem is a lack of
communication between chill
dren and parents.
Its unfortunate, but true,
that children and parents often
don't understand each other" 4"

'Drop-Outs'
Find 1t Hard
To Hold Job

Boys and girls who drop out
of high school before gradual
ing tend to have q tough time
getting and keeping good jobs,
the Labor Department said
yesterday.
The department released re-
suits Of a survey showing that
drop-outs have higher unem-
|ployment rates than high
school graduates, earn lower
wages and are more likely to
find unskilled jobs with less
chance for advancement.
The survey was made in
seven communities from 1852
to 1857, and released In time
for distribution at the White
House Conference on Children
and Youth. opening here today.
Drop-outs experienced two to
three times as much unemploy-
ment as boys and girls who
went to work after graduating
from high school according to
the survey.
Only 3 per cent Of the boy
graduates were earning less
than $40 per week at the time
Of the survey, and nearly one
third were earning $50 or more.
By contrast, Is per cent Of the
boy drop-outS were earning less
than $40 and only one-fifth
were earning $50 or more.
Half the girl graduates were
earning $50 or more per week
but only one-sixth Of the girl
dropouts were doing that we'll.
First Jobs were Of similar
types for the boys who sradu-
ated and those who dropped
out Of school, the department
reported, but the graduates
made faster progress to jobs
requiring higher skills. The
majority Of the girl graduates
obtained office jobs. while most
Of the girl drop-outs were en-
ployed as mattresses Or IN other
unskilled work.
