That stoppage, he said, cost the country $2,000, 000,000 worth of production and the economy will "bear the sears . , . for many months to come." Strike Hikat Prices The pressure toward higher prices also was intensified by the coal shutdown, according to OPA Administrator PaufA. Por ter, in another statement issued last night. It has "delayed the time in a number of cases at which price ceilings can safely be removed," Porter declared, and was "ex tremely costly to the stabiliza tion program." Even if strikes disappear quickly from the industrial pic ture. Small foresaw another check to production developing in the closing months of the year when he said a "severe'' man power shortage is likely. Reporting on strikes during the first four months of the year, he reported they had cost more man-days "than ever before in the country's history." Yet employment climbed in April to 54.600,000 and the num ber of jobless began to drop for the first time since the war's end. Previously unemployment had climbed along with employ ment, because industry could not absorb men released from the armed forces. Full Employment Possible "Should employment rise an other 2.500,000 this year and such a rise seems certain . . . employment will hit the 57.000, 000 mark, defined in some quar ters as "full employment for the postwar transition period." the OPA administrator predicted. mere were 360,000 fewer per sons unemployed in April than in March, cutting the jobless total to 2.335.000. Small said, but this again was before the coal starvation began closing mills and factories. "Discussing- strike effects, the CPA chief reported that "perish able crops will be lost due to a shortage of both glass containers and tin cans" and that important efforts like the veterans' hous ing drive and the famine relief program have been set back se riously. "The production of durable goods including automobiles, has been set back at least three months by the coal strike, com bined with other strikes," his report said.
