The low point in unemploy
ment in the Salem area appar
ently was reached at the end of
August when an estimated 750
persons were on the Jobless list
as compared with 2150 a month
earlier.
This estimate is made by the
Salem office of the state em
ployment service with W. H.
Baillie as manager. A total of
57 non-agricultural Job open
ings remained unfilled at the
month's end, the report states.
In addition to these, orders were
i a hand for large numbers of
seasonal agricultural workers.
"The remaining unemployed ap
peared to be so because of
choice, or because of physical in
ability to meet requirements of
jobs offered, or because they
were temporarily between jobs,-1
concludes the employment office
J statement.
- Farm activity accounted
largely for the peak in employ
ment although food processing
played an important part in tak
ing up the slack. Canneries and
similar plants employed 4500
persons during August and ad
ditional workers were being
placed as the month ended
Approximately 500 persons
were employed on the Detroit
dam project.
While the strong demand for
seasonal workers is expected to
continue well into September,
the employment service predicts
a labor surplus by the end of
the month.

Polk County Storm Damage
Most Severe in History
Dallas, Sept. 10 Reports of damage from Friday's early morn
ing electrical storm, described by old-timers as the most severe
here in their recollection, continued to come in from residents
of Dallas and rural areas through the day Friday.
A bolt struck a barn on the place owned by Miss Helena Remnel
at Polk Station. It ripped two
holes in the roof and splintered
rafters. Another struck a large
oak tree on the old Remington
place back of Bernard Quiring's
barn about two miles north of
Dallas.
On the Falls City line a bolt
splintered a power pole of the
Mountain States Power compa
ny, but service was not disrupt
ed. Crews replaced the pole lat
er in the day. Many transformer
fuses were burned out in Dallas,
causing some residents to be out
of service while replacements
were made.
One Dallas resident reported
that only steam issued from his
hot water faucets when he turn
ed them on after getting up in
the morning. A bolt of lightning
apparently had traveled through
electric wiring and welded the
thermostat so that the unit con
tinued heating.
Children were terrified by the
storm which continued from
about 2 a.m. until 3:30. Virtual
ly all residents were awakened.
The fire department was on the
alert for possible alarms but
none came. Forestry headquar
ters of the Polk-Benton district
had been notified of three spot
fires by noon. Overcast condi
tions may have prevented look-

five fires set by Thursday morn
ing's storm, crews of the district
spent a sleepless night. Largest
of all the fires was the 15-acre
blaze on Mary's peak, set Thurs
day morning.
At the peak of the Friday
storm, brilliant lightning flashes
vividly illuminated the earth
and crashing thunder was almost
deafening. Its sharp cracking
brought the illusion of continu
ous strikes in the city itself, but
the dawn revealed no signs of
severe damage in Dallas.
