Drops in State
Oregon's ratio of insured un
employment has declined stead
ily from an early February peak
of 15 per cent to last week's 8 per
cent, the State Unemployment
Compensation Commission report
ed here.
Oregon has now dropped from
top spot to 10th place in the na
tional list based on unemploy
ment. During this period the U.S. av
erage has remained almost sta
tionary around 6 per cent. Latest
report shows West Virginia high
with 12.1 per cent, and Rhode
Island. Kentucky, North Dakota,
Tennessee, Mississippi, New
Hampshire. Arkansas and Idaho
ahead of Oregon.
Estimates of all active jobseek
ers. as reported from 26 Oregon
employment offices, showed 52,

tion of 11,688 during March and
21,329 fewer than listed Feb. 1.

On target! The final and important phase of the testing procedure
is shown in panel 4 as Dr. E. A. Thistlewaite demonstrates how
Mary Jo and hundreds of Marion County second grader school
kids will participate in the polio tests. Doctors figure each child
will spend only several minutes in his trip through the clinic.

Job Gains in
State Not Up to
Expectations
Gains in Oregon's non-agricultural
jobs during March aggrega
ted 4,900 less than expected but
the upward trend has continued so
far this month, the State Unem
ployment Compensation Commis
sion reported here.
Employers' reports indicated
436.600 workers in trade, industry
and service compared with 449.100
a year ago and 396,100 in March,
1950.
At post-war peaks in late sum
mer of 1952 cud 1953. more than
495,000 persons had jobs.
Sawmills and loggers added
4,200 workers last month but re
mained at about 1950 levels, nearly
5,000 below last year. Construction
picked up a little in March but
was doing better in recent weeks.
Recent pickup at The Dalles dam
was not reflected in the figures
because most of the actual work
was on the Washington side of the
river.
LOSS IS PERSONAL
OAKLAND, Calif. In 10
years Harold R. Williams parked
about 100,000 cars without any
damage. His record ended when
he backed into a pole, causing
$150 damage to his own car.
Pencil makers say there are
more than 350 kinds of pencils.

Salem People Use Telephones
Extensively; Sign of Prosperity
NEW YORK-(Special)-Talk in Salem over the telephone
has become more golden than silence. More golden because the
extent to which telephones are used and the amount of business
activity in a community are shown to go hand-in-hand.
Residents of Salem do more phoning, in proportion to popu
lation, than ij don- in most cities in the United States. As of the
beginning of last year, there
were 24,974 telephones in opera
tion locally. This was equivalent
to 53.3 in service for every 100
people, considerably more than
the 30.3 per 100 people in the
country as a whole. In the State
of Oregon there were 30.3 per
100.
Fewer in Pakistan
How large the 24,974 installa
tions in Salem loom from an in
ternational viewpoint may be
gathered from the fact that in
all of Turkey there are 59,000
phones, in Peru, 45,000, and in
Pakistan, 18,000.
The data, obtained chiefly
from the American Telephone
and Telegraph Company, shows
that in the rest of the world
there is but one phone for every
68 people. This country has one
for every three.
Million Houses Per Year
Most of the telephone com
panies in the United States have
found it impossible to keep up

with the demand1 for new instal
lations. New houses are being
built at the' rate of a million a
year and nearly all call for tele
phones. Since the end of World
War II the number of phones in
the country has doubled but the
demand continues ahead.
A certain falling off in tele
phone activity has been felt,
however, in connection with the
current slump, indicating the
sensitivity of the industry to
business conditions generally.
The demand for new phones
is not at quite as high a rate as
six months ago, the number of
daily calls per phone has de
clined and the length of conver
sations is shorter. The effects,
however, are minor, according
to the AT&T, which sees better
business ahead.
