Non-Farm Jobs Hit Record in August 1960
The Labor Department reports nonagricultural payrolls reaching a record 61 million in August. Harold Goldstein notes growth accelerated from a year earlier, with gains in service sectors including government, transportation, and utilities. Manufacturing fell by 91,000 as auto model changes began, while construction rose to a record 3.6 million. Unemployment declined 350,000 to 3.3 million, yet the jobless rate stayed at 4.5 percent due to a shrinking labor force.
