of List; Benefit
Claims Drop
New Jobs reported by Oregon's
21 employment offices last week
Increased to 834 while Initial
claims for unemployment benefits
dropped to 1500. as compared
with more than 6000 a week at
the yearend.

ment offices with 202 placements
with Klamath Falls and Albany
tied for second with 90. Eugene
reported 87, Newport 72, Bend 48,
Marshfield 43 and Corvallis 34.
Of the 3S,500 claims for 1940
benefits, 25,000 have been deter
mined. Unemployment compensa
tion officials said most of the
claims resulting from the year
