Unemployment Os Over Five l Million Seen I WASHINGTON (UPI) — Another million workers are virtuelt Jy certain to Jose their jobs in > December eind January, pushing I unemployment over 5 million, j government economists predicted today. No drop was in sight before March. Barring a sbairp — and unforeseen — spurt in pnoduotian and hiring, the number of jobless was expected ito rise to 4.2 million toils month end to 5.2 million in January. Another 100,000 workers were likely to be laid off in February. i The economists painted this idark picture alter ithe Leber Deipamtment announced Monday that unemployment climbed by 452.000 last month to 4,091.000, a postwar I November record. The jobless Trade fell a shade from 6.5 to 6.3 per cent of the labor force. Seymour Wolfbenn, a deputy assistant secretary of labor, said he foresaw “nothing in the offing which will bring unemployment down before the end of winter.” He said the November figures . supported earlier predictions that unemployment would not drop un- , tfl Merch, falling 'then to 5 million. He noted that joblessness usually jumps cm January because ■ Christmas workers are laid off and cold weather cum tai Is outdoor work. i November marked the first time unemployment topped 4 million mark since June, when the figure was 4.4 .million. But the June increase was largely due to the many students seeking vacation jobs. The November increase r. was described as a normal sea■sanal rise. I One Physician Reports LOS ANGELES (UPI)-Dr. Alex G. Shulman of Los Angeles burned his hand with grease some years ago. He submerged the injured hand in a tub of cold water and discovered that pain was lessened and healing speeded. ' Fort Wayne Man Dies i Os Traffic Injuries , MUNCIE, Ind.

Louisiana's Legislature Meets Today NEW ORLEANS <UPI) — Ctty ] school cfffoiais today saw Louis- , ia-na moving tow.-d state-support- ] ed private, racially segregated ; education. They also predicted a tiny band cf whfe parents will ride out a wave of violence and abuse and leave their children to an tote- < grated school. “The LegisJatore must have come to the realization that ’.t must either accept some farm of toteginrition in the public schools i or openti’e private schools, ’’ said the school board’s outgoing president, Lloyd G. RiVitoer. Try To Unseat Board The Legislature meets today to vote on an apparently already doomed move to un seat it h e beard. The new b'U is virtually the same <as a new law rehde-ed unenfoncettie last week by federal covert orders. The lawmakers have absolved to stop payi n g teachers a>t the ci’tty’s two integrated schools, but the board has •assured .the teachers they will be "If <the Legislature forces closure of the itwo schools, we’d just be fc.ced with integrating two more," Ritttoer said Monday night. The boaird met after the U.S. Supreme Court ruled agannet the •state’s latest appeal to re-segre-gate the schools, even temporarily. The count ®aiid the •state’s spe-cially-passed segregation laws were “without merit.” Riititoer sa-id the segregationl-it-led Legislature “must have accepted .the fact that private schools will cost more money.” To Raise Sales Tax The next special session of the Legislator® will be autocirized to raise the state’s sales tax -from itwo to three cents on the dollar. The session starts Saturday. Marshals convoyed eight white children and one Negro girl to and from Frantz Monday, and escorted three Negro girls into McDoncgh 19. where for the 12‘h straight school day, not a white attended.

Kennedy Meets George Meany

WASHINGTON (UPD— AFL-CIO President George Meany today called on President-elect John F. Kennedy, presumably to discuss selection of a secretary of labor. •Meany, whose appointment had not been announced to advance, returned this weekend from Europe. Kennedy has held up an appointment of this cabinet position until be could sound out Meany’s | views. 4 Kennedy spent about an hour talking with the labor chief. 1 Meany was tight-lipped and refused to say whether they had discussed (the appointment of a labor secretory. “We had a nice talk and any commant would have to come from .the senator." Meany sand. Goldberg Is Contender iArthur Goldberg, special counsel for (the AFL-CIO and general counsel pf the United Steelworkers ttorn, has been rated as the top contender for the position. Meany, and some aides, however, have indicated they are not eager for Kennedy to select any- ■ one from the ranks of organized labor for that pacitiicular -post. With four cabinet posts filled and six to go, Kennedy also turned his attention today to finding a secretary of agricultwre to help him carry out hits campaign pledge to boost farm income and cut farm surpluses.

Chester Bowles, D-Conn., as undersecretary of state and Adlan E. Stevenson as U.S. ambassador to toe United Na lions. The Pre.?id ent-eJect’s press secretary, Pierre Salinger, said Kennedy might appoint 'another cabinet member today, possibly the defense or treasury secretary. Register Strong Objections The two men most frequently mentioned for .agriculture stere-' ta.ry — 62-yeair-old Missouri farm leader Fred V. Hetokel and 38-year-old Rep. George S. McGovern, D-S.D. — were running into strong objections from opposing •forces among Kennedy’s farm advisers. The incoming President tutoed , for advice to Chairman Harold D Cooley, DN.C., of the House Agriculture Committee and Ralph Bradley cf Springfield, I’ll., pnesi- ’ dent of the Illinois Farmers Un- , ion who directed campafign field ‘ operations for toe Fawners for ’ Kennedy-Johnson Organization. 1 Kennedy had an appointment 1 with Bradley at 11:30 a.m. EST and with Cooley a half-hour later.
