Labor Cutbacks Are Expected Albany Oregon faces a grave problem in the form of an anticipated army of 100,000 to 160,000 workers who will be released from war industries in the Columbia river area when demand for war production ceases, and already cut-backs in shipyard orders are producing labor surpluses in the immediate vicinity of the Columbia ports, L. C. Stoll, state manpower di rector told an audience of near ly 100 at the Albany Hotel, nesday. The Albany Chamber of Com merce sponsored Mr. Stoll's talk, but his audience included sizeable delegations from Cor vallis and Lebanon. Stoll warned that further cut backs are inevitable, and that a recession of government or ders for lumber, particularly, will be felt soon, and he pre dicted that by next September or by the first of next year at the latest, persons returning from war industry areas as well as from the armed services will provide both agriculture and in dustry in Corvallis, Albany and Lebanon with an ample supply of labor. The state manpower director asserted that in his opinion the best policy to pursue when the big shut-down of war industries comes is to permit the jobless to subsist on unemployment compensation until such time as private industry can readjust itself or expand sufficiently to provide the necessary employ ment. . 1 Mr. Stoll painted a bright pic ture for such communities as Albany, Corvallis and Lebanon.
