The report indicated that in March, 1958, there were only 580 less jobs than there were the same month a year ago. In in agriculture the figure was but 10 below March last year. A brighter outlook is also seen in the statement that to-tal building permit issues, by selected communities through- out the county, show a large increase value-wis- e, although there is a drop in number from the month of February last year. Postal receipts recovered from last month's loss and again moved ahead of the coun-terpart month of 1957, for the county. The report said that employ-ment seems to have reached bottom in the county between Feb. 15 and March 15 and from this point on should continue to rise. Postal receipts in the county were up 1.5 percent. In Spring-ville they were down slightly for March but were up the month before. During Febraury, 1958, the employment office at Provo reported securing jobs for 230 workmen and the previous Feb-ruary 1957, secured jobs for but 109. Of the 203 who secured jobs last month 28 were in' agricul-ture, 8 unskilled, 13 semi-skilled, 5 skilled, 43 service, 75 clerical and sales and 31 pro-fessional and managerial, the r report stated. population estimates. The Re-view is published by the Bureau of Economic and Business Re-search at the University of Utah in Salt Lake City.

That's what the March issue of the Utah Economics and Business Review says in its feature article on 1958 county the Review notes that as of January 1 of this year there were an estimated 105,000 per-sons living within the borders of Utah County. At the same date in 1957 there were an es-timated 102,000 people living in the county. This is a 28 per cent gain from the 81,912 that was counted during the 1950 census. The population of Utah on January 1, 1958 as nearly as can be determined, was 858,000. This gain of 25,000 persons dur- - ,!: ' ' 3 v S 1 1 v. qualifying member.

Pictures Taken Of City Cleanup Finally at last, last week the weather warmed up and this city had what might be called a "mock clean-up- " day. When the official clean-u- p day arrived so did the rain and as result the magazine repre-sentative who planned to give Springville $20,000 worth of ad-vertising for a few pictures and a story about our clean-u- p, wouldn't come to our town. But on Tuesday, Sterling E. Price of the Chamber of Com-merce made one more phone call to San Francisco and told Joern Gerdts that finally we have sunshine. Paul K. Walker, high school principal, sent out the word for a few students to get on their working cloths and bring their rakes and the pictures were taken. And Mr. Gerdts was mighty pleased with what he saw. Through the courtesy of Mr. Price, the visiting photograph-er was taken up the canyons to the picnic areas and to every other scenic area in the city. And so impressed was Mr. Gerdts with the scenery from the east bench that he asked the price of building lots. The seagulls following the ploughs, the lake, the orchards, and every spring thing seemed just- - perfect for fine photogra-phy adding to .the story of Springville's' annual clean-u- p which is to be told in a na-tional magazine. Some people can stay longer in an hour than others can in a week. William Dean How-ell- s. |
