The seasonal recession in industry and employment continued during August, the United States Department of Labor reports. There has been a slowing down in building throughout the State. Employment In the iron and steel industry continues on a fairly satisfactory basis. One of the largest contributing factors too the unempl6yment situation in this State is the parttime operations of practically all coal mines. It Is very difficult for the released coal miners to secure employment in other lines. A large number of unskilled workers are being absorbed on road building.
