Vermont Labor Market Sees Small Unemployment in Armistice Era
In Vermont the number of unemployed is small despite war end, says state industrial commissioner R. W. Simonds who visited Burlington. He notes high wages 65 to 85 a month plus expenses, demand for unskilled labor 3000 5000, and keen need for skilled workers. Quarries and woods require labor, with March as hardest period before steady improvement by September. Many Vermonters and returning soldiers are resuming prewar work, and overall labor adjustment is expected to be smooth.
