that the total time worked by employes
In those establishments was

of 1920. The same Investigation
showed 41 per cent unemployed
in the boot and shoe Industry
In Massachusetts; 18.5 per c?n'
In the metal industry. Since that
time. Phelps stated, conditions have
very much Improved. A large numbs

1 a whole are at present employing
from 20 to 25 per cent fewer per- j
sons than they did In July. 1920.
