Curve On Unemployment Chart Moves Relentlessly Upward EDITOR'S NOTE: Mori Americans have jobs than ever before, according to figures re laasad lait week by the Labor Department. But mora than 4 million parsons do not have obs and can't find them. This, the second of two dispatches on the VENETIAN BLINDS Sales and Service SERVICEMASTER Of Roieburg 672-4601 We Give S&H Green Stamps impact of poverty, outlines what Labor Secretary W. Willard Wirti calls "our No. 1 domestic problem." By LOUIS CASSELS WASHINGTON (UPI) Dis played on the main floor corridor of the U.S. Department of Labor building is a large chart which is blood-chilling in its own way as an Alfred Hitchcock movie. It shows the number of Ameri cans who are hunting jobs and unable to find them. 1 Ten years ago, the unemployed constituted only 3 per cent of the nation s labor force. Five years ago, they constituted about per cent of the labor force. Today, six per cent of Ameri ca's workers are jobless. And the curve on the chart is still moving relentlessly upward. Why? The basic reason is that the U.S. economy is not growing fast enough to provide jobs for all the people who need them. During recent years, Labor De- 6 The News-Review, Roseburg, Ore. Thurs., Aug. 8, 1963 partment studies show, the econo my has been creating only about so per cent of the new jobs re quired to offset the jobs lost through automation and gains in productivity, and to employ an ever growing labor force. For example, 11.3 million new jobs were needed during the past five years simply to maintain un employment at the 1957 level. But economic growth actually pro duced only 102 million jobs the other 11 million persons joined the unemployment rolls. Unless the rate of economic growth is sharply increased, the unemployment problem will grow dramatically worse over the next few years. There will be a tremendous wave of new workers entering the labor force during the 1960's, as young people born during the postwar "baby boom" begin hunt ing for jobs. The Labor Department esti mates that the economy will have to create 16 million new jobs dur ing the next five years just to stay even. If it falls short by 10 per cent as it did during the past five years the number of unemployed will rise by another 16 million to the highest level 1930's. Republicans and Democrats, liberals and conservatives, busi nessmen and labor leaders all agree on the imperative need to step up America's rate of econom ic growth, so that there will be jobs for those now unemployed as well as those entering the labor force in years ahead. Opinions differ sharply, how ever, on the particular measures which are most apt to stimulate more rapid growth. President Kennedy says major tax cuts and reforms, such since the great depression of the those proposed in the administra- i tion's tax legislation now before Congress, are the quickest way to "generate larger markets, addi tional investment and more job opportunities." He also has asked for a strong er unemployment insurance sys tem, a special government pro gram to provide employment op portunities for youth, retraining programs for workers automated out of jobs, government help for "depressed areas" with unusually high unemployment rates, and a $900 million public works pro gram. ! Sen. Barry M. Goldwater, R-l Ariz., feels' that much of thB v tnedy program is costly boondog. gling that won't really help create jobs. "The main thing we need to eet the economy moving and cone with the increasingly serious un employment problem," he says "is to give American business and industry a real incentive for new investment hv lih.....!:...-- the tax laws with government de preciation allowances. That would stimulate capital investment in new and modernized plants, and create the new inhs wo cn need. Lucerne Party Pride Half Gallon tl CBEAAA Vanilla Chocolate Maple Nut Banana Nut Choc.

By AL KUETTNER United Press International One day this week a memoran dum signed by the leaders of the Aug, 28 march on Washington will be released from the New York headquarters of the massive operation. The document will contain such signatures as Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. of the Southern Chris tian Leadership Conference; Roy Wilkins, executive head of the National Association for the Ad vancement of Colored People, and A. Philip Randolph, president of the Negro American Labor louncu. It will call on Negroes to con duct themselves in a "sober and dignified" manner when they come to the nation's capital for the biggest demonstration ever released during the current civil rights dispute. Plans Carefully Laid This is part of a carefully-laid plan to prevent the demonstration from erupting into incidents and violence. If the show is pulled off with out a hitch, the ability of Negro leaders to control their forces will victory. If there should be trou ble, look for strong reaction from Congress. The size of the Washington crowd now is predicted at "well over 100,000." Marchers, their voices raised in a moving inte gration hymn "We Shall Over come" will mass before the Lincoln Memorial in an appeal to Congress to enact the new civil rights bill. The demonstrators are sup posed to arrive and leave Wash ington in a single day, leaving behind only the influence of a massive but disciplined exercise in mass persuasion as a lobby for! better jobs and civil liberties fori the nation's Negroes. Well Organized Leaders of the march have tried to think of everything, down to getting advice from the Army on how many persons can pass a given point in a given time. They have arranged for comfort sta tions out no food. Marchers must bring their own box lunches. "I believe it can be done peace fully," said Wilkins, a senior "an chor man" on the project.
