Employment T number at work in nonagricultural industries recorded a further substantial gain in October, according to data compiled by the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Factory employment recorded a slightly niore-tlnin-seasonal gain as compared with September, the adjusted index advancing about one-half point to 87.5 (1923-25=100). Factory pay rolls increased relatively more than employment, owing partly to the fact that reported September pay rolls were influenced to some extent by the observance of the Labor Day holiday. Gains in employment in October were predominantly in factories producing durable goods, with 35 of the 43 industries in this classification reporting increases over the month interval. Employment in these industries has recovered only to the March 1938 level, and in October the number employed was one-fourth less than at the recoveiy high readied in May 1937. Although 26 of the 44 nondurable-goods industries surveyed reported increased employment in October, the group as a whole showed a decline. However, the number at work in these lines in November was only about 11 percent below the high recorded in September 1937. The largest employment gain in October was in the automobile body and parts industry, in which approximately 85,000 workers were returned to work. This gain reflected the increased production of 1939-model cars. Other durable-goods industries reporting gains which were larger than seasonal included agricultural implements; electrical machinery, apparatus, and supplies; hardware; steel mills; radios and phonographs; glass: and brass, bronze, and copper products. Among the non-durable goods industries, gains reported were largely of seasonal proportions except for men's furnishings, knit goods, and chemicals, which showed increases that were larger than those usually occurring at this season. Nine of the sixteen nonmanufacturing industries for which data are collected increased employment and 13 increased pay rolls in October as compared with September. In retail-trade establishments, the gain in employment was less than that usually experienced, while in wholesale trade the increase was of about seasonal proportions. The number of workers in coal mines and in metal mines increased by more than the usual seasonal amount, the latter gain reflecting the increased activity which has accompanied higher metal prices. Employment also increased more than seasonally in the private building construction industry.
美国劳工统计局(Bureau of Labor Statistics)编制的数据显示,10月份非农业行业的就业人数进一步大幅增加。与9月相比,工厂就业录得略高于季节性的增长,调整后的指数上升约0.5点至87.5(1923-25=100)。工厂工资增幅相对大于就业增幅,部分原因是报告的9月份工资增幅在一定程度上受到庆祝劳动节假期的影响。10月就业增长主要集中在生产耐用品的工厂,43个此类行业中有35个报告就业增长。这些行业的就业只恢复到1938年3月的水平,10月份的就业人数比1937年5月达到的复苏高点还少四分之一。尽管在接受调查的44个非耐用品行业中,有26个行业的就业人数在10月份有所增加,但整体来看就业人数有所下降。然而,11月在这些生产线上工作的人数仅比1937年9月的最高记录低11%左右。10月份就业人数增幅最大的是汽车车身和零部件行业,约有8.5万名工人重返工作岗位。这一增长反映了1939年型号汽车产量的增加。其他报告收益大于季节性收益的耐用品行业包括农具;电气机械、设备及用品;硬件;钢铁企业;收音机和留声机;玻璃、黄铜、青铜、铜的制品。在非耐用品行业中,报告的增长主要是季节性的,除了男性家具、针织产品和化学品,这些行业的增长比通常在这个季节出现的增长要大。与9月份相比,在收集数据的16个非制造业行业中,10月份有9个行业的就业人数增加,13个行业的就业人数增加。在零售贸易机构中,就业的增长比通常经历的要少,而在批发贸易中,就业的增长大约是季节性的。煤矿和金属矿工人人数的增加超过了通常的季节性数量,后者的增加反映了金属价格上涨带来的活动增加。私营建筑行业的就业增长也超过了季节性。
