Slowdown
Emphasis
By HENRY J. BECHTOLD
UPI Financial Editor
New York - (DPI) - The slow
down in the economy the past
year has put emphasis on
executive r e
plnccment op
p o r t u nitles
rather than
newly created
jobs.
A year and
a half ago the
situation was
reversed, with
52.7 per cent
Uenry ueclUold of the execu
tive openings falling into the
now job category.
This is one of the findings
in an analysis of six surveys
conducted over the past 18
months ' by Executive Man
power Corp., a management
recruitment firm. Three sur
veys were conducted among
large companies averaging
sales over $100 million a year
and ' three among smaller
firms averaging sales of slight
ly more than $10 million. '
Among the larger firms,
sales executives wore the
most wanted, but management
skilled in manufacturing and
production, and those cxperi-
' enccd in general manage
ment, research, industrial and
personnel relations also are in
great demand.
You've never seen one compact machine ito so
much. From spring planting to tall mulching, powerful
traction and a wide choice of tractor tools keep a Merrr
Tiller working at top cliiciency throughout the growing
season long alter other machines are through. And it's
so much easier to use than bigger, more costly equipment.

in Economy Putting
on Executive Posts
The need for engineers, now
ranked fourth with 14.7 per
cent of the total, fell off
sharply from previous highs
of 22.5 per cent and 23.6 per
cent which ranked it second
in two earlier polls.
- However, EMC president
William A. Morion said there
always Is continuing need for
the engineer who can step
into a responsible position
and take charge of a company
department.
Today, the survey showed,
more jobs in the large firms
are paying $20,000 or more
than previously tallied in
earlier surveys, although few
er jobs are available in larger
companies than was the case
in mid-1050.
Contacting Executives
The fact that 30.1 per cent
of the larger companies now
use management recruiters as
against 29 per cent some 18
months ago, is indicative of
the special services demanded
by management as business
practices become more com
plex, Hertan doclurcd. The
reason behind this trend, he
said, is that corporations can
not spare the time themselves
to search out qualified special
ists for lop jobs.
This system of recruiting
now ranks second only to pro
motion from within. Personal

The smaller firms also are
concentrating on replacement
positions rather than newly
created jobs, even more so
than the larger firms.
Sales Positions Lead
As with the larger com
panies, sales positions lead in
opportunities. But engineer
ing executives are next in de
mand, replacing manufacturing-production
specialists who
were second - ranked in the
June, 1960 poll.
Smaller firms also have
resisted the drop In the num
ber of job openings on hand
with very little change show
ed over the past year.
The average age of the
larger firms' lop executives
was concentrated in the 45 lo
55 group, but the smaller;
firms showed a wider range
of between 40 and 55, with
the 55 group declining from
the previous poll.

weather science and service
is about the best in the world.
The credit is due largely to
more than 12,000 men ana
women in the 50 states who
make regular observations,
without pay and often at the
risk of injury or death, for the
weather bureau.
These volunteer workers in
clude both young and old.
Some are members of families
which have been faithfully re
porting the weather for half
a century or more. The Tow
ers family of Rome, Ga., for
example, has been taking
weather readings for more
than 100 years.
Who are these people? The
weather bureau says they are
country store owners, house
wives, farmers, working men
and women, lawyers, judges,
preachers, doctors, teachers,
company executives.
Volunteers Necessary
The weather bureau has

bious military vehicle designed by Chance
Vought Corp. to give ground forces high
mobility in all types of terrain, is shown
manned by full time profes
sionals. So without the volun
teers, the bureau simply could
not accumulate the data it
has to have to get a slant on
the climate, make forecasts,
and do weather research.
The bureau chief, Dr. F. W.
Reichelderfer, said recently
that the records of the Coop
erative Observers corps "en
ables us to provide an effec
tive climatological service -in
fact, one of the best in the
world."
The volunteers have saved
uncounted lives and prevent
ed incalculable damage witn
timely warnings of floods and
tornadoes. Their records have
settled many a court case.
What do they get out of it?
Lapel badges, special awards,
certificates, personal satisfac
tion plus, on occasion, consid

One day Robert E. Botlel of
Elk Valley, Calif., started for
his instrument shack and al
most didn't make it. A sudden
wind storm snapped a 150
pound limb from a tree. The
limb crashed down through
some telephone lines. Bottcl
was knocked groggy by the
limb and tied up by the wires.
The wind then slammed him
against a building. But he got
his readings.
J. E. Duane, in charge of a

a hurricane hit the key Sept.

Roy W. McNeley observed a
tornado approaching Grove
spring, Mo Sept. 26, 1959,
and drove through the town
giving the alarm and helping

These incidents are typical.
Why do these people take on

years to so exacting a job?
Judge A. S. Peacock, who
took observations at Wakee
