Cautious Optimism On Employment Figures From 1954 Hearings
The Labor Department told Congress that employment services offices are cautiously optimistic the downtrend may be checked by mid March. Bureau chief Goodwin forecast possible rapid business expansion in the second half of 1954 and projects unemployment averaging about 2.6 million in early 1954 and around 2.0 million in 1955, with a range between 2.0 and 3.74 million in the recession year. Bureau of Labor Statistics Commissioner Clague noted factory jobs fell less sharply from December to January and that January 15 manufacturing employment was the highest for a postwar January aside from 1953. State and local reports align with a milder adjustment period, suggesting a rebound begins with seasonal lift by mid March.
