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.

New 'Boom' Hits Toyville's Market
Santa's Pack Will Be Heavier, Costlier
By Charles Norman
NEW YORK. (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. In history there were 129 male
candidates. 241 fema; placed, nine
men. three women. Modem languages,
