METAL PAYROLL ; TOPS IN STATE Employment Gain Shown In Indiana Iron, Steel Industries ‘I Indianapolis, Apr. 6. <U.R>—Em-j ployinent and payroll increases in the iron and steel Industries dur ! Ing March exceeded all other' manufacturing and non-manufac-ing groups reporting to the Indiana state employment service, Martin F. Carpenter, director, said today. • Gain* of 1.8 per cent and 15.4 per cent, respectively, from February i i to March were shown for the Iron and steel group. Carpenter said. Despite this upturn and increases in a few other groups, Indiana em- . ployment and payrolls showed con-' ■ tra-seasonal losses during the . month. Carpenter pointed out that this . was a continuation of the down- , ward trend which has been in evii denee since early last September. . Os the 2.149 representative manu- . factoring and non-manufacturing establishments reporting to the service in March a decrease of 2.3 per cent in employment and .2 per cent in payrolls was shown in com-! parison with February. These groups employed 145,376 persons in March. In the manufacturing group, 819 factories, employing 103,362 wage earners, reported a decrease of 2.8 per cent in March employment,' while total payrolls, however, showed a gain of .6 per cent. A similar comparison was made in the durable goods group where employment advanced 4.3 per cent and payrolls dropped 1.0 per cent. J Nondurable goods manufacturing industries showed practically no change during the month, employment decreasing only 0.1 per cent and payrolls 0.3 per cent. Four of eight major groups of manufacturing industries experienced employment increases, while tive showed payroll gains. Groups increasing employment are: iron and steel. 1.8 per cent; textiles and their products, 2.3 per cent; tobacco manufacturers. 4.2 per cent; paper and printing. 2.3 per cent. Payroll increases included iron and steel, 15.4 per cent; : clay, stone and glass products, 1.8 per cent; leather, 2.9 per cent; tobacco manufacturers, 6.2 per cent, and paper and printing. 2.6 per cent.

Wholesale trade showed a greater than seasonal expansion with employment up 2.9 per cent and payrolls off 1.1 per cent.
