The roll of jobless probably has more than .doubled since mid-No- vember. » I Federal statistics for that month showd 352,044 Canadians registered for new jobs at Na- tional Employment Service of- fices. Of those 292,000 were out of work. REPORT TO COMMONS At Jan. 2, Labor Minister Starr reported to the Commons, 754,640 were registered.‘The number ac- tually unemployed was not an- nounced. If the proportion was the same as in November, Can- ada had at least 625,000 unem- ployed at the New Year. Canada’s worst previous winter . for unemployment since the end of the war was 1954-55.

NOVA SOCITA R. P. rtley, regional Atlan- tic em yment director, de- clined to estimate total unem- ployment but said “there’s more . . . than last year.” ‘ 1 Poor market conditions in the woods industry, a decrease in construction and ' slack water- front activity are blamed for much Nova Scotia unemploy- ment. However, at the year-end welfare workers in Halifax re- compared with 2.3 per cent a year before. But 12.4 per cent of population was registered, for work in 1934. ‘ MANITOBA William Darracott, manager of the Winnipeg office of NES-,—it covers the area from Portage la Prairie east to the Ontario Hor- der—says 21,084 were out of work at Dec. 26 compared with 14,387 in 1956.

In the following, article he sums up his impressions.) By DAVID CHIPP PEIPING (Reuters)——Mao Tse- tung, Communist Chinese chair- man, and his close associates re- main, in the opinion of most Westerners in Peiping, as genu- inely united now as they were in the days whenthey planned the eventual conquest of China from the caves of Yenan. All signs———and these have been reinforced by personal observa- tion and i1§formation———are that the Chinese leaders form a united group of real comrades in the non-Marxist sense of the word. The Chinese party has emerged unscathed and probably strength- ened by the troubles that have be- set the Communist world since the denunciation of Stalin at the Soviet 20th party congress two years ago. GROWN IN IMPORTANCE Ideologically, the Chinese party I .. has grown in importance, and many believe that there have been signs that the fountainhead of Communist wisdom is moving East. * The Chinese did not join the wild denigration of Stalin, and though they admitted his faults, said these were outweighed by his virtues. V ‘ Last February,‘ Mao made his now-famous speech when he ad- mitted that contradictions could, and did, exist between the gov- ernment and the people, even in a Communist country. At no time did Mao or any other Communist renounce their ultimate objective, or say that there would be any relaxation of ‘the complete dictatorship over the forces opposed to commu- nism. China’s whole foreign policy based on close ties with the So- viet Union, and on astrong and undivided Communist bloc. _ A weakened Russia or divided bloc would mean a less-strong China. CLOSE FRIENDSHIP There are no signs of anything but the closest co-operation and friendship between the two Com- munist giants, and visual /evi- dence denies those who believe that the Chinese dislike the Rus- sians as a people. . The unique dualposition which the spring. “It snowballs. One group opens up and starts a payroll, money becomes available and / others open up.” ' However, government and la- bor men said they expect heavy unemployment to continue until prted no .increase in applica- tions for assistance. ‘ There have been fewer jobs for women in "the 'Atlantic region, partly because of layoffs in tex- tile milles and slower retail trade.
