Mobile far short of World War II job peak
In Mobile Alabama the State Employment Service reports 500 workers sought emergency jobs as Korean fighting continues. Wartime peaks hit about 50,000 shipyard and nearly 20,000 Brookley Air Force base employees, with no mass hirings expected unless shipbuilding resumes or ships are converted. A few ships removed from the Tensas river mothball fleet give a small lift to Mobile yards, but operation remains well below wartime levels.
