State Employment
Hits Higher Level
SALEM (UPD Despite the
lumber industry labor dispute
there were more people working
in Oregon last month than in any
July in history.
Department of Employment
Commissioner David Cameron put
the total at 732,800.
This was 300 less than the June;
working force.
Unemployment dropped to 32,-
900 in mid-July, 1,500 less than a
vear aco and 2,500 less than in
June.
Cameron explained Uie loss of
7,400 jobs in the state during the
month in the state and local gov-
ernment catagory resulted from
the June closure of educational
institutions.
Timing of the crops resulted in
1,400 decline in canning and.
preserving jobs.
The big job gain came In non
manufacturing where there were
22,300 more jobs than a year ago.
These gains included 7,800 in
contract construction; 3,800 in
trade; 3,200 in services and 5,500
in government.
The lumber industry labor dis-l
putc had 9,000 persons out of
work in mid-July, about the same
as the June figure.
Agricultural employment was
down almost 11,000 from last July.
The decline was largely because
(lie strawberry harvest was com
pleted by mid-July this year.
