Tucker, manager of the united states Employment Service Serv-ice In Provo, has released the following information as a comparison com-parison on population, Trend and Level of the Civilian Labor Force as it affects Utah County. Coun-ty. Mr. Tucker said that the number of persons now working in Utah is greater than the total number of workers, both em- ployed and unemployed, whoi formed the 1940 labor fnrem. This 'is not true, however, in Utah County where none of the typical war-time installations were located. In 1940 in Utah County, of a population of ap proximately 57,000V employed workers numbered 13,862 which included those on make work or public work projects. Today, in Utah County. Mr. Tucker said that of a population in the neighborhood of between 65,000 to 70,000, employed work ers numbered 17,500. Both em ployment figures include those engaged in agriculture although there are less than 100 foreign agricultural workers Mr. Tucker said. Agricultural employment is expected to reach its peak in August. The construction of Geneva Steel had its influence on Utah County's population and resulted result-ed in a sizeable influx of workers. work-ers. Conservative figures put this increase at 10,000- On V-J Day, employment in Utah County was approximately 17,000, and this indicates that employment in the county. as a whole has remained rather stable with no noticeable Increase In-crease or decrease due to some industries expanding and some curtailing employment for a balance. bal-ance.
