MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUTE. MEDFOKU. OREGON, FRIDAY, DECEMBER 6, 1935. PAGE TEN NEW DEAL'S SLASH DIES AFTER SPURT Progress in Cutting Down Jobless Polls Slow in Past Two Years 15,071,000 Was Misery Peak Figure Bv Nathan Rnbi-rtsnn Associated Press Staff Writer WASHINGTON. Dec. 6. P) Un employment estimates widely used In government departments Indicate that progress In cutting down the Jobless rolls has been comparatively alow ourlng the past two years, after s sensational spurt early In the admin istration. The figures, assembled originally for President Roosevelt's committee cn economic security, estimate that unemployment decreased almost 4, 000.000 during ths first seven months of the New Deal, but changed little In the subsequent two years. Despite their use by government agencies the figures have been close ly guarded since they were assembled by the security committee's consult ant, Robert R. Nathan. Peak In March 11133 They place the peak of unemploy ment at 16.071.000 In March. 1033. and estimate that by October. 1033 It had fallen to 11.176.000. Since then the figures show sharp fluctuations with a net decrease of 201.000 from October, 1033, to September. 193S. September's total of 10,015,000 was higher than the New Deal low of 10. 743,000 In June, 1034. Although the final flfiure for October has not been determined, preliminary calculations Indicate It wilt be materially less than the September total. Nathan assembled the figures through March, 1034 for the economic security committee. Since then he has made the computations unofficially. His estimates Include totals not only of the unemployed but of the em ployed. Although they show more unem ployed In September of this year than In June of last year, they also Indi cate more people were at work In Sep tember. This surface discrepancy Is explained by an estimate that the employable population Increased 450, 000 botweon the two months. Eni'lnn,,lM Inerrase For tho seven-year period from January. 1020. Nathan estimates a total Increase In trie-employable pop - ulation of almost 2,onn,nnn persons, and, concedes this may be tow. He places unemployment In January. 11)29. at 2.631.000. On that basis the nation would have to find about 4. 600.000 more Jobs than existed In January 1020 to wipe out Joblessness. Here Is how - unemployment hee swung back and forth under the New Deal, according to Nathan's estimates: March. 1033; 16.071,000. October, 1033; 11.170.000. January, 1034: i2.6OO.9uo. June, 1034; 10.734.000. January, 1035: 12.501.000. September. 1035; 10.015.000. Here are the figures for the corres ponding months in the three years: September, 1033; 11.44B.000. September, 1034; 11.008,000. September, 1935; 10,015.000.

(7Pj-Ther 1 a "boom" In Toyville. and Santa Claua' pack will be heavier and costlier thla Christmas. Santa, of course, la not interested in figures but they show that the $200,000,000 toy Industry Is experi encing Its best year since 1929. with advance sales 10 per cent ahead of last year, and a scarcity already ap parent In "quality toys" those of higher price. And toy factories, as a result, are working night and day. In 30 states, to keop up with the demands, says the Toy Manufacturers of the U.S.A.. Inc. They Really Work A glance at Santa Claus' 1935 pack shows every type of Industry repre sented in "put-the-chlldren-to-work" playthings. From housekeeping to building, toya are efficient, gleam ing and streamlined. Stoves that can cook a turkey, electric trains from 64 to 42,000. and grocery stores with scales that really weigh, safes with combinations, dial telephones and ca?h registers are "In the bag" for Santa. Farm toys are very popular, too. utys the toy group, ascribing It to the wide publicity given the farm belt by tlie drought. Farm animals. barns with modern lines, and tractors with snow plows are some of the headllners. In keeping with the "toya that work" motif, there are lead-casting sets with which youngsters can make their own toys. If they wish: cement- mixers that mix cement; optometrist sets with which Johnny can grind glasses for microscopes, and chemic als used In Industry. New Trains There Is an add-a-room house that can be built on the "Installment" plan and enlarged after the initial building Is started. For the large number of children and adults fascinated by trains and tracks there Is an automatic gateman who jumps out of his booth and waves at the train. Some of the trains this year have a whistle that sounds Just like the real thing enough so to make commuting fath ers run for the station when they hear it. Dolls are numberles and realistic. for children, says the toy group, are realists. The Dlonne quintuplets have helped boost the "birth rate" of dolls. Streamlining, while not new for toys, has been brought to the 10 -cent division for the first time. Fifty thou sand new designs in playthings, rep resenting the combined efforts of more than 400 manufacturers, will pour from the larger pack of Santa this year to delight America's chil dren. ' FRANCE STUMPED FOR COLLEGE MEN PARIS (UP) Too many people are being educated in France for too few lobs. That la no casual theory, but the opinion of Franclsque Vial, who heads the dfpartmcrt of secondary inatruc tlon at the ministry of national edu cation. "People are complaining now that there are too many college graduates Vlsl says. "Two years from now there are going, to be one-third as many more. And what ore we doing for youth?" He provided the answer nlnuclf. "Nothing." The oversupply of college graduates la seen In every profession. One ex ample that reached tho ears of the whole world is that of the medical profession, where overcrowding caused demonstrations against toreign prac titloncrs and the passing of laws re stricting their activity in France. But In no profession In it felt more grave ly than in teaching. Not many years ao any graduate with a degree entitling him or her to tench was assured of a place al most immediately. Today only a lew of those who leave state normal schools with diplomas which are equivalent to teaching certificates are able to find places. Tli us. for instance 83 men and women with degrees entitling them to teach philosophy got seven places three for the men. four for the wom en.
