Non-Farm Employment Drops Recently Indiana’s nonfarm employment dropped slightly last month to approximately 1,858,500 from 1,859,800 in May but manufacturing industries reported a small increase in workers for the first time since January, according to John F. Coppes, director of the Indiana Employment Security Division. He said that preliminary estimates made by the Division indicate that about 3,860 fewer people were empoyed at midJune this year than were at the same time last year. Mr. Coppes said nonmanufacturing industries accounted for the employment drop last month. The construction industry, which ordinarily shows a substantial increase in workers during June, had fewer last month, with many off the job because of labor disputes. Government employment fell . below the May level with the release of some 1970 Census workers and of employees of schools closing for vacation. A few other nonmanufacturing industries also reported small seasonal cutbacks in personnel. The estimated 23.600 increase in unemployed workers (from about 99.300 in May to some 122,900 last month) was less than ordinarily experienced in June so the seasonally adjusted rate of unemployment went down to 4.4 per cent from 4.7 pa- cent, Mr. Coppes said. He said that the usual jump in the number of unemployed young people was evident following the closing of schools but that there was some drop from May in the number of workers on Indiana's seasonally adjusted rate of unemployment was 2.7 per cent in June last year when unemployment was estimated at 47.300. Mr. Coppes said. CLEAR BUND CORNERS Mr. Farmer: Farm Safety Week (July 19-26) would be an excellent time to give serious thought to the road hazards your crops may be creating. Crops planted near fences at road intersections mav result in “blind” cornegptor drivers. The Indiana Farm Safety Council encourages farmers to participate in a statewide program designed to improve safety at rural intersections. Contact your local ASCS office for assistance in converting crops to flowers or low ground cover in hazard areas. Do your part — promote safety and at the same time help Keep America Beautiful.

Hartke Sponsors Legislation To Protect Legitimate Sportsmen
WASHINGTON, DC. — Senator Vance Hartke (D-Ind.) co-sponsored legislation today designed to protect the legitimate sportsman from stringent legislation against the illegal use, transportation and possession of explosives. The Hartke amendment would modify a bill concerning explosives by permitting sportsmen to purchase and possess reasonable amounts of black gun powder. Black powder is used in muzzle loading firearms. “The bill which was proposed
to strengthen Federal law a dealing with explosives was not meant to penalize the legitimate sportsmen,” Hartke said, “but rather toward cracking down on the increased use of bombs and explosives by radical members of our society.” “The amendment I have cosponsored would clarify this legislation by including a provision which allows sportsmen to purchase and possess an adequate amount of black powder to be used for shooting purposes,” Senator Hartke said.
