Challenge On Jobs Front Points Up The Need For More Savings And Growth Without Inflation What has been termed the American population “explosion” sfnee the Forties .is, aoout to manifest itself in a pronounced uptrend in the of the work ing population in the years ahead, by contrast with its com paratively slow growth of recent years, according to data compiled by the U. S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. The Bureau in its projections expects the number or new wortt ers to increase by 13 Vi million persons in the Sixties. This would be half again as great as the number of entrants into the work force ir the current decade, as compared with only a minor increase between the Fifties and the preceding decade.

More savings and capital formation will not only be needed for busi-, ness and industrial expansion in the years ahead.

How ever, the size of the increase in the work force in the offing lends new emphasis to the cur rent discussion of the nation’s growth performance and to the principal factors that promote or retard economic expansion. In a high investment economy such ,as ours, it is obvious that the adequacy of savings and cap ital formation is of fundamental importance to growth.

The show-, ing of the Fifties reflected the low birth rates of the Thirties, while the impact of the wartime manpower requirements of the Armed Forces and of brought abnormally large num bers of women, youngsters and Older men into the labor force in the Forties. Reversals of Hecenl Trends The Bureau’s forecast shows two interesting reversals of re cent trends. The first is that more men than women will enter the work force in the next decade and a half. During the Sixties, for example, it is anticipated that there will be 7.4 million new male job seekers as against 6.1 million new female entrants into the working force. An even wider margin is expected in the ’Seventies. During the last two decades, by contrast, the figures show more women than men .having gone into the working population, with the working wife scoring the biggest gain. The second reversal of recent trends is an anticipated expan sion in the younger job seek ers, particularly males under 35. In the Sixties, for example, this group is expected to increase by over 5 million, and an even larg er growth is forecast for the fol lowing decade. This trend is of particular nignificance since it is tomorrow’s youth, with its rising educational attainment and more intensified training, that will be I the source of the country’s orea j tive and administrative brains of | the future.
