Raleigh, Feb. 10. The free
plyment offices in this state are giv
ing the kind of service to North
Carolinians ty bringing the employer
and employe together that the U. F
Employment Service is operated for
declared Frr.neis I. Jones, director
general, who is spending the week
heie looking over the unemployment
situation in this section.
"Conditions generally in North
Carolina are gcod," Mr. Jones said'
today, "while this state is not as
bad as some others the unemploy
ment situation can be improved up
on." The work of the six offices in
the stste and of the interest taken
in them by Commisisoner of Labor
and Printing M. L. Shipman, dollar-a-day
employe of the, federal govern
ment, was commented upon favor
ably by Mr. Jones. The latest sur
vey made of the employment situa
tion in North Carolina by the em
ployment service, which ft'.;? for the
onth of January, is summarized as
follows by Mr. Jones:
"Two hundred and fifty-seven tex
tile mills are now employing VG,o92
workers, which is an increase for
the month of 184; 41 lumber plants
are empoyingl 3,238, an increase of
SO; Hi fertilizer plants, employing
4SS, an increase of 17. Reports from
:M industrial centers in the state
generally indicate a satisfactory con
dition in employment."
No unemployment is reported in
incastvial lines in Charlotte, High
Point, Winston-Salem or Asheville,
but all of thoe cities have a surplus
of unskilled laborers, the report
shows. Road ard street work has
contributed to relieve the situt.lion
throuh'it NV-th Carolin- ;n re
cent months as far east as Wilming
ton aim rer the state westward as
h:r as Asheville.
Knco.iragi'.ig reports from all o
the cities indicate considerable im
provement soon. High Point repons
the building of 240 residences during
the last 12 months and vhtually nc
