Unemployment is just about as low as it can get. The total un- - employment of 1,700,000 1s much below normal for peacetime, and al large part is. due to the normal turnover, although probably a fourth of it is due fo inability of some over-age groups to get jobs “Purchasing power is a higher—somewhat higher—than. in 1039, although each general rise in wages has been accompanied by al rise in prices” 5 Total employment now, he said appears slightly under the 60 million mark recently attained—including farm workers- -but it could easly return to or pass that record

Presure of Demand |

Mr. Clague gave as reasons for the record number of jobs “the continued heavy pressure of demand, an¢ improved flow of raw materials, a low volume of strikes, and the favorable weather which permitted this fall's remarkable home-building boom to continue.” October, he said, saw 92,000 homes placed under construction, and
