MAKE THINGS AT HOME Canada as a whole ships abroad far too great a proportion of raw material of all kinds for the bene- fit of foreign countries. If the pol- icy of using our raw materials at home were more generally adopted, we would build up here many great industries which would help to re- tain our industrial population in this country, and at the same time create a far wider market for our agricultural products and food- REGULAR NEETING OF BAPTIST Y.P..

NOW 8,000,000 Examine Figures Given By the Secretary of Labor Washington, April 2. -- The claim that here are now approxi- mately 8,000,000 persons out of work in the United States, in- stead of 1,874,050, as stated by Secretary of Labor Davis in his recent report to the Senate, was made in that body today by Sena- tor Shipstead, Farmer-Laborite, of Minnesota. On March 24, Secre- tary Davis stated that Ethel- bert Stewart, Commissioner of La- bor Statistics, "by the most care- ful computation methods avail- able, finds that the acual number out of work is 1,874050." Senator Shipstead argued that Mr, Stewart had really said noth- ing of the kind, but had merely declared that the shrinkage, on a basis of those employed in 1925, was 7.43 per cent., and had added that "applying this percentage to the total number of those employ- ed in 1925 gives a shrinkage be- tween the average of 1925 and January ,1928 of $1,874,060 per- sons." Report Questioned This figure, Mr. Shipstead said, had been 'accepted by the Senate and the press as representing the present total number of unemploy- ed but as a matter of fact it refer- red only to those who had lost employment since 1925. In this connection, he quoted Mr. otew- art as saying in the report trans- mitted by M¥. Davis: "In making 1925 the vase of 100, it is understood that whatever there may have been of unemploy- ment in that year is ignored, and it is assumed that those who were let out of industry between 1923 and 1924 had by 1925 readjusted themselves." To secure a real base on which to estimate unemployment it was necesssary to go back te the first half of 1920, the peak of employ- ment, Mr. Shipstead declared. Then, using the Stewart figures .of 7.43 per cent. shrinkage be- tween 1925 and 1928, Mr. Ship- stead estimated hat beween 1923 and 1925 there was a shrinkage of 8.8 per cenf:, or 2,219,600 unem- ployed, and between 1920 and 1923 a shrinkage of 16.8 per cent, or 4,237,420 persons unemployed. Labor Review Quoted Addition of the figures covering 1920-2j made ,he said, a shrink- age percentage of 32.6 and a total unemployment of 8,331,170. "You will note in the March monthly labor review," he said, "that, using the monthly average of 1923 as 100, the peak of em- ployment in the first half of 1920 stood at 117. In 1921 it dropped to 84.9 and in 1922 to 87.1. For 1923 it rose to 101.9, and dropped to 87.9 in 1924, and to 90.9 in 1925. We find the employment index for January, 1928, given as 84.2, showing a gradual progressive de- cline with the exception of the year 1923. From the high em- ployment peak of 117.9 in May, 1920, to 84.2 in January, 1928, there was a total decline of 33.7 in employment."
