Chairman Kendall also points out,
will further increase these figures.
That this represents an unprece
dented utilization of the labor force
of the State covered industries is
shown by the fact that the total
non-agricultural labor force in
North Carolina as reported by the
U. S.^Bureau of Labor Statistics
reached 760.000 in November 1942,
although only 603.446 of them were
then in covered employment^ rep
resenting a coverage of 80.1 per
cent; whereas, in December 1946,
with a total non-agricultural labor
force <u 7.71,000, 62,0.693 workers

Chairman Kendall points out
that the remaining 5 per cent in
cludes a large number of self-em
ployed and professional workcr.
who are also excluded from cover
age. Tiie only reason that tiie re
maining industrial workers, esti
mated at less than 12.1,000 are not
covered againstthcj ha/; rds of un
employment. according to Chair
mar Kendall, is b* cause of a pro
ve ion in the State Law which does
not require ;.:i employer who had
