the working population and broad-

Figures show that in April of
this year there were 27.7 million
persons In the experienced civilian
labor force in the white collar oc-
cupation group—those in the pro-
fessions and related tasks, non-
farm managers and proprietors,
and clerical and kindred workers.
The equivalent number on the
same date two years ago was 25.4
million, indicating a gain of two
and a quarter million in the period.

added up to 26 million in the Spring
of this year as igainst 24.9 mil-
lion in the 1956 period, an increase
of just over a million. Thus the
number of white :ollar workers in
April this year topped their blue
collar counterparts by one and
three-quarter millions, more than
three times the margin two years
ago, and has shown a rate of
growth twice as fast in the period.
Of particular significance In this
trend is the rapid expansion of the
classification of professional, tech-
nical and kindred workers. This
group includes our scientists and
engineers, our teachers, and the
wide range of trained technical
personnel needed to meet the
technological requirements of a
highly industrialized society plus
the newly developed challenge of
the space age.
The figures show that in the
last two years alone a million per-
sons were added to this key group
in the nation's work force. This
brought the total in professional
occupations to above 7 million for
the first time, representing more
than one out of every 10 in the ex-
perienced civilian labor force. This
proportion has been growing rapid-
ly in recent years. In 1950, for ex-
ample, the number of persons in
professional and related tasks was
about one in every 12 in the civil*
ian labor force, and in 1945 the
ratio was only one in 16.
