were seeking jobs May 1 against
42,200 a month before and 39,
'700 last year.
Resumption of seasonal activi
ties because of the dry, settled
weather was the prime factor In
the uptrend, most managers re
ported.

Portland area led the back-to-
work movement with 4,000 find
ing jobs and only 10,700 unem
ployed against 17,300 a year ago.

Oregon timber districts also Im
proved greatly during the month

due more to farming, construc
tion and activities other than
logging.

had hastened spring logging.

ported 50 per cent cuts in unem
