With seasonal farm work starting and war-time industries expected to add thousand* in the next few months, the record low week of $15,- 940 last September may be reached soon. ‘■7;, The number of claimants has dropped nearly 6Q per cent in the last month. An analysis shows only 476 lumbering employee* drawing bene- i fit* a* compared with 1534 in April. The construction field has 117 claim ants against 556 a month ago. Other comparisons by industry are: Min ing 102 to 17; food manufacturing 190 to 258; apparel 91 to 91; trans- postation 300 to 162; wholesale 163 to 258; department store* 178 to 78; retail 216 to 112; automotive 185 to 73; cafe* 128 to 44; hotel* 63 to 43; laundries 42 to 21; recreation 87 to 48.
