8 Million Are Still Jobless in U. S., Report Says: June High Month.

B United Press WASHINGTON, Aug. American Federation of Labor re-

ported today that the postdepressoin employment rise “is beginning

to weaken” with “more than 8,000,-

000 still out of work.”

The federation reported that “in |

industry as a whole there were 139.000 more jobs in June than in any other month this year; but this June gain compares with gains of

300.000 to 400.000 in every previous |

month, showing that the employment rise is beginning to weaken. “Our unemployment estimate, based on Government figures, shows more than 8.000.000 still out of work. “A significant fact is shown when we compare hours worked this spring with last spring and note the apparent effect on employment. “Last year, in the spring busy season, hours were lengthened and one hour was added to the work week. This vear the drive for union organization influenced hours of work and there was no change in the work week, which averaged 40°; hours in January and the same for May “This holding of work hours at least partly responsible for the large employment gains in the first half of the yvear—January to June. “For this year, although gains in production were less than one third the gains of last year, employment increased almost as much as last year.”

HIGHER QUALITY EGGS ARE SOUGHT

Education of Consumer Aim Of Projects.

Indiana housewives are going to have higher quality eggs to scramble in the future if the Indiana Poultry Association, Purdue University and Indiana chain stores have their way. At a meeting in Lafayette yesteraay, a plan was conceived to educate consumers to distinguish between choice and poor quality eggs. The plan will be tried in Indianapolis first on an experimental basis, and if found satisfactory will be introduced in other sections of the state. : It is expected that the demand

for better quality Hoosier eggs will |

be expanded whereas now mbre than $0 per cent of Indiana's high quality eggs are shipped to New York City and eastern markets.

day at the opening of the two-day farm discussion at Purdue University. Four of every five counties were
