STATISTICS
ARE BLOODLESS THINGS
To
say that during the year 1932, the crudest year of the Depression, the average
number of unemployed people in the country was 12,5 million by the estimates of
the National Industrial Conference Board and a little over 13 million by the
estimates of the American Federation of Labor — to say this is to give no living
impression of the jobless men going from office to office and from factory gate
to factory gate; of the disheartening inevitability of the phrase: "We'll let
you know if anything shows up"; of men thumbing the want ads in cold tenements;
spending fruitless hours and week after week, in the sidewalk crowds before the
employment offices; using up the money in the savings bank, borrowing from
relatives less and less able to lend, tasting; the bitterness of inadequacy, and
at last swallowing their pride and going to apply for relief —if there was any
to be got. (F.
