EXPECTED TO CUT Gradual Sustained Pickup to Give Three Million Jobs in Next 10 Months Washington, Sept. 2. (Pi Administration economists made a Labor day prediction today that the national defense pro gram, with conscription In cluded, would cut unemploy ment In half by next July 1, reducing the number of Jobless from 9,000.000 to 4,500.000. They said they expected a gradual, sustained pickup in in dustrial employment to provide Jobs for more than 3.000.000 men in the next ten months. Mobilization of the national guard and the Inauguration of conscription, summing favor able congressional action on the latter score would account for another 1,000,000 reduction in unemployment by lata spring, they estimated. In the case of compulsory military training, the Jobless to tal may be reduced both by conscription of u n e m ployed youths and by the hiring of men without work to fill Jobs vacated by employed conscripts. Manufacture of uniforms and equipment for the trainees is expected to employ thousands. Plane factories, shell plants, tank manufacturing and scores of other Industries are listed as new employment opportunities.
