Unemployment Declines Half
Million in August Report
WASHINGTON, D.C. — Un
employment fell by one-half
million over the month to 3.9
million in August, about the
expected change for this tine
of year, the U. S. Department
of Labor reports in releasing
the Bureau of Labor Statistics
summary employment and un
employment figures. The em
ployment situation for teen
agers and adult men showed
some improvement in August
but there was a higher rate of
unemployment among adult
women workers.
The seasonally adjusted un
employment rate was 5.5 per
cent in August: the jobless rate
has ranged between 51/2 and
6 percent during 1963. The Au
gust figures reflected some im
provement in the job situation
for teenagers—their rate drop
ped to 14 percent in August af
ter remaining close to 16 per
cent since early spring. The un
employment rate for adult men
edged down to 4.1 percent, a
little below rates recorded
earlier in the year. However,
the jobless rate for adult wo
men rose to 5.7 percent in Au
gust, slightly above the level
in recent months.
Long - term unemployment
remained at about 900,000 be
tween July and August and
was also unchanged from a
year ago. Included in this cate
gory were 500,000 persons who
had been unemployed 6 months
or longer, down 100,000 from
a year earlier.
Total employment dropped
300.000 to 70.6 million, 800,000
higher than in August 1962,
Seasonal expectations call for
little change in the employed
total between July and August;
this year there was a relative
ly sharp drop in agricultural
employment, down half a mil
lion to 5.5 million in August.
Farm employment in August
was 300,000 below a year ear
lier, in line with its long-run
downtrend. Total nonagricul
tural employment — at 65.1
million — was not significantly
changed from July following
the usual pattern at this time
of year. The total remained
1.1 million above a year earlier
in August.
Included in the nonfarm em

seasonally adjusted basis the
August total was at the top
of the 2 to 2 1/2 million range
registered in this category
since late 1961.
The total labor force drop

bor force was about 600,000

comparison with the previous
9 months of fairly rapid labor
force expansion. No conclu

Talmadge Given
Belated Thanks
As Ga. Governor
ATLANTA (GPS) — Al
though it has been more than
eight years since he served as
Georgia's chief executive, U. S.
Sen. Herman E. Talmadge is
! still receiving thanks from
Georgians for things he did as
governor.
For example, The Free Press
1 at Thomaston carried an edit
orial the other day headed,
"Say, Herman. Thanks For
That Driver’s License.” It read:
। “If you are a veteran you
mignt want to pause and say
' | ‘thanks' to Sen. Herman Tai
maage. The thanks is due, not
necessarily for something of
: late, but for the free life-ume
i driver’s license Sen. Talmadge
। gave Georgians when he was
governor.
“To our best calculation, the
| free driver’s license has meant
more than sls in cash savings
| so far to veterans to say notn-
I ing of the trouble of renewal
| that it has eliminated.
“So, to prove that we are not
ungrateful, we just looked over
Herman Talmadge’s name on
the license and it reminded us
to say that this carry-over from
his administration as governor
of Georgia is still kindly re
membered.”
