Total public employment in Fed eral. state and local government reached a new high of 7,083,000 persons in fiscal 1954, compared with 0.083,000 in farm employ- | rnent, according to figures contain-1 id in thi' new eighth edition of the, Finindat ion’s Hi en ni a I reference j hook, Facts and Figures on Govern-1 mi lit Finance, 1954-55.

A sizeable increase in state 1 ; I lid local employment counteracted a. slight decline in Federal employ ment. which at 2.348,000 was small er in 195.4 than in any of the pre ceding three years. The 254 -page book, which con rains charts and tables describing taxation, spending and debt as- I pets; of Federal, state and local governments', showed the follow ing growth in public employment: In it* 10.
