Publish Study On
Pa.llnemploymenf
By ROCHELLE MICHAELS
The old saying ‘‘go west, young
man’’ is just as true today as it
ever was according to Jacob J.
Kaufman, professor of economics.
Kaufman and Helmut J. Go
latz, associate professor of in
dustrial relations, have published
a study of Pennsylvania’s major
problem titled “Chronic Un
employment in Pennsylvania.”
The report says that Pennsyl
vania has failed to readjust its
industrial structure in a way that
would be economically desirable.
"Apparently the growth in
dustries of Pennsylvania have
not been those which take up
the slack caused by the losses
of employment in the coal and
railroad industries." it con
tinues.
However, since the greatest
(number of the unemployed are
j skilled workers, Kaufman said
[that this situation will have little
on University graduates.
I Kaufman added that pi ace -
! ment opportunities for all col
lege graduate Will be "tremen
dous" in future years, but that
Pennsylvania will have fewer
offerings than most other sec
tions of the country.
According to Kaufman, gradu
ates in the business, professional
and semi-professional fields will
not have to worry about job
placement because the low birth
rate of the 1930’s has caused a
shortage of people in the 25-44
age group. However, there will be
[more opportunities outside of this
[state.
