actual unemployed.

The Jan. 2l figure of N13 com- pared with 338,000 at Dec. 10 and was l40.000 above that of a year earlier.

Seasonal Factors

Mr. Gregg also said the Bureau of statistics estimate of unem- ployed-bssed on a sampling of 30.tll0 households-was 30.000 at Jan. 3. compared with l00.0o0 in early December and l8'l.000 in Jan- uary of 1953.

Mr. Greggs bureau figures showed 4.465.000 persons working iull time in the week of Jan. in against 4.535.000 in January. 1938.

He attributed most of the present

situation to seasonal factors and to "fractional" unemployment-"rat is. people who are temporarily be- tween Jobs for various reasons apart from cold weather. Acting Prime Minister Hows said that anybody suggesting the gov- ernment does not take the unem- ployment situstion seriously is "en- tirely mistaken."

"It. is a matter of great concern to the govemment." he said.

Temporary Slowdown

However. economic facts indi- cated the pruein-t situation was "a temporary slowdown in the pace of budness, which has coincided with the winter slack period."

Experience during a similar sit- uation in the winter of 1940-00 showed that "government attempts to smooth off every bump and hol- low would only aggravate the fluc- tuations."

The never-umant had taken no major steps to meet ' ment in the early part of 1950. However. national employment figures cf those seeking work de- clined from 308.000 iir early March. i050 to 129.000 three months later.

If the goveriunent had taken any major action then. it would have added fuel to the inflationary pres- sures which were felt later on in i950.

Mr. Howe said that capital in- vestment in 1054 is estiinotsd at 35.800.000.000, a three-per-cent in- crease oger the i953 record. Final figures for 1963 have not been re- leased. but last. July the govern- ment estimsted capital investment for the year at 86.564.000.000.

,SseI Continual Growth

"Notwithstanding any uncertain- ties. the collective view not busi- ness enterprise is on the side of continual growth and prosperity." Mr. 1-lows said.

The debate was launched by Howard Green (PO - Vancouver Quadrrs). who yl'0P0Md the PC motion for s Commons committee. He at first sought a special oom- mlttse to deal with the problem but later assented when spesksr Bsne Besudoln ted he amend his motion to have the House in.- dustrisl relations oosnmittce do the
