In his tiny 10 ft fishing boat, with as fishing tackle a 40 lb test line, plastic lure, no fishing rod or reel, he hooked a 400 lb Blue Marlin. The fight took 4 hours, after which the victorious Fisher had to resort to his mobile telephone to ask for assistance from a larger fishing boat. There was no way his little boat with 10 hp engine could tow the fish into the Bequia harbor!

GOVERNMENT PRINTING OFFICE
W A SH IN G T O N : 2933
HE Bureau of Labor Statistics of the United States Department
of Labor presents in the following tables, data compiled from pay
roll reports supplied by cooperating establishments in 17 important
industrial groups of the country and covering the pay period ending
nearest the 15th of the month.
Information for 89 of the principal manufacturing industries of the
country is shown, following which are presented tabulations showing
the changes in employment and pay rolls in the 16 nonmanufacturing
industries included in the Bureau's monthly survey, together with
information available concerning employment in the executive civil
service and on class I railroads.
Employment in Selected Manufacturing Industries in August
Comparison of Employment and Pay-Roll Totals in August 1933 with July 1933
and August 1932
M PLOYM EN T in manufacturing industries increased 6.4 per
cent and pay rolls increased 11.6 per- cent between July and
August 1933, according to reports received from representative estab
lishments in 89 important manufacturing industries of the country.
A comparison of the index of employment in August 1933 with the
employment index of August 1932 shows a gain of 27.9 percent over
the year interval, while a similar comparison of pay-roll indexes
indicates an increase of 43 percent.
The index of employment in August 1933 was 71.6 as compared
with 67.3 in July 1933, 62.8 in June 1933, and 56.0 in August 1932;
the pay-roll index in August 1933 was 51.9 as compared with 46.5 in
July 1933, 43.1 in June 1933, and 36.3 in August 1932. The 12-month
average for 1926 equals 100.
These changes in employment and pay rolls in August 1933 are
based on reports supplied by 18,008 establishments in 89 of the prin
cipal manufacturing industries of the United States. These estab
lishments reported 3,187,674 employees on their weekly pay rolls
during the pay period ending nearest August 15 whose combined
weekly earnings were $60,351,490. The employment reports received
from these cooperating establishments cover approximately 50 percent
of the total number of wage earners in all manufacturing industries of
the country.
August is the fifth consecutive month in which increases in factory
employment and pay rolls have been reported. The increases in
employment during the preceding 4 months were widespread. The
number of industries reporting increased employment in August
exceeded that of previous months, 81 of the 89 industries surveyed
showing increased employment over the month interval. Increased
pajr rolls in August, as compared with July, were shown in 83 of the
89 industries.
Employment and pay rolls ordinarily show but little change between
July and August, the average percentage of increase in employment
between July and August during the past 10 years having been 0.2
percent and in pay rolls 1.5 percent. These increases therefore of
6.4 percent in employment and 11.6 percent in pay rolls in August of
the present year are of unusual proportion and are due largely to the
adoption of the N.R.A. codes by numerous cooperating establishments.
The increase in employment in August combined with the increases
reported from March to July represent a return to employment of
nearly 1,500,000 factory workers over the 5-month interval. The
increase in pay-roll totals in August combined with the estimated,
increase in weekly pay rolls between March and July represents an
increase of more than $40,000,000 disbursed in weekly pay envelops
of factory employees in August over the total weekly pay rolls dis
bursed in March. The August employment index stands at 29.9
percent above the level of March 1933. The August pay-roll index
shows gain of 55.4 percent over the index of March.
Employment in August 1933 reached the highest point recorded in
over 2 years, the August index being but slightly lower than the index
recorded in July 1931. The continued increases in pay rolls during
the last 5 months have pushed the August pay-roll index up to the
highest point reached since December 1931.
Each of the 14 groups of manufacturing industries reported gains
in employment and earnings over the month interval, the nonferrous
metals group reporting the greatest increase, 12.4 percent, due to
consistently large gains In number of workers in each of the 8 indus
tries comprising this group. The increase of 11.2 percent in the
rubber products group was due to pronounced gains in employment
in the rubber boot and shoe and the rubber-goods industries, com
bined with a smaller percentage gain in the automobile-tire industry.
The machinery group reported a gain of 10.6 percent in employment
over the month interval, the foundry and machine shop, machine
tool, radio, textile machinery, and typewriter industries reporting the
most pronounced gains in this group. The iron and steel group
reported a gain of 10.5 percent in employment in August, as com
pared with July, and an increase of 20.9 percent in pay rolls, which was
the most pronounced gain in pay rolls shown in any of the 14 groups
of manufacturing industries. Each of the 13 separate industries com
prising this group reported gains in employment with the exception
of the plumbers' supplies industry in which a decline of 1 percent was
reported. The most pronounced gains in the separate industries in
this group were in the iron and steel forgings, iron and steel industry,
stoves, cutlery, and tool industries. The lumber group reported a
gain of 8.2 percent in employment, furniture and sawmills reporting
the most pronounced gains. The chemical group reported an increase
of 7.7 percent, the cottonseed oil-cake-meal industry in this group
reporting an increase of 19.1 percent, and the rayon and chemicals
industries also reporting gains of over 10 percent in employment.
The stone-clay-glass group reported an increase of 7.3 percent in
employment, each of the 5 industries in this group reporting sub
stantial gains. Employment in the food group increased 6.7 per
cent between July and August, the beet-sugar industry reporting the
largest percentage gains shown in any of the 89 industries surveyed, a
seasonal increase of 55.2 percent. The confectionery industry re
ported an increase of 20.9 percent in number of employees coupled
with an increase of 33.1 percent in pay rolls. Two industries in the
food group reported decreased employment, namely beverages and
flour. In the beverage industry, the decrease was due partly to a
seasonal decline in soft-drink-manufacturing establishments and
partly to decreases in employment reported in a number of breweries
which stated a more regular production schedule had been established.
The paper and printing group reported a gain of 5.3 percent in em
ployment and the transportation group reported a gain of 5.2 percent,
the automobile industry in the last-named group reporting an increase
of 4.3 percent in employment with much larger gains being shown in
the shipbuilding, electric- and steam-car building, and locomotive
industries. The railroad repair shop group reported a gain of 4.8 per
cent, steam railroad repair shops reporting a substantial increase and
electric railroad repair shops reporting a slight decline in employment
between July and August. The leather group reported a gain of 3.9
percent, the tobacco group reported an increase of 3.1 percent, and
the textile group reported a gain of 2.8 percent in employment over
the month interval. This gain in employment in the textile group
was coupled with an increase of 15.1 percent in pay rolls, the adoption
of the various industry codes prescribing a minimum wage accounting
largely for this more pronounced gain in pay-roll totals than in
Only*8 industries failed to show improved employment conditions
over the year interval. The most pronounced gains in employment
between August 1932 and August 1933 were reported in the beverage
and rayon industries, in which increases of 117.9 and 102.9 percent,
respectively, were shown. Other unusually large percentage gains in
employment were reported in numerous industries, the more important
of which were radios, 71.5 percent; cotton goods, 69.1 percent; woolen
and worsted goods, 54.3 percent; iron and steel, 50.6 percent; glass,
46.7 percent; leather, 41.6 percent; steam fittings, 40.8 percent;
chemicals, 39.7 percent; silk and rayon goods, 37.6 percent; machine
tools, 36.7 percent; furniture, 34.6 percent; foundries, 31.8 percent;
and sawmills, 31.6 percent. The automobile industry showed an
increase of 19.8 percent in employment over the year interval coupled
with a gain of 60.7 percent in pay-roll totals.
In table 1, which follows, are shown the number of identical estab
lishments reporting in both July and August 1933 in the 89 manufac
turing industries, together with the total number of employees on the
pay rolls of these establishments during the pay period ending nearest
August 15, the amount of their earnings for 1 week in August, the
percents of change over the month and year intervals, and the indexes
of employment and pay roll in August 1933.
The monthly percents of change for each of the 89 separate indus
tries are computed by direct comparison of the total number of em
ployees and of the amount of weekly pay roll reported in identical
establishments for the 2 months considered. The percents of change
over the month interval in the several groups and in the total of the
89 manufacturing industries are computed from the index numbers of
these groups, which are obtained by weighting the index numbers of
the several industries in the groups by the number of employees or
wages paid in the industries. The percents of change over the year
interval in the separate industries, in the groups and in the totals, are
computed from the index numbers of employment and pay-roll totals.

Per Capita Earnings in Manufacturing Industries
P e r capita weekly earnings in August 1933 for each of the 89
manufacturing industries surveyed by the Bureau of Labor Statistics
and for all industries combined, together with the percents of change
in August 1933 as compared with July 1933 and August 1932, are
shown in table 2.
These earnings must not be confused with full-time weekly rates of
wages. They are per capita weekly earnings, computed by dividing
the total amount of pay roll for the week by the total number of
employees (part-time as well as full-time workers).

Time Worked in Manufacturing Industries in August 1933
Reports as to working time in August were received from 13,404
establishments in 89 manufacturing industries. Three percent of
these establishments were idle, 64 percent operated on a full-time
basis, and 33 percent worked on a part-time schedule.
An average of 92 per cent of full-time operation in August was
shown by reports received from all the operating establishments
included in table 4. The establishments working part time in August
averaged 76 percent of full-time operation.
A number of establishments supplying data concerning plantoperating time have reported full-time operations but have qualified
the hours reported with the statement that, while the plant was
operating full time, the work in the establishment was being shared
and the employees were not working the full-time hours operated by
the plant.

Employment in Nonmanufacturing Industries in August 1933
M PLO YM ENT increased in August as compared with July 1933
in 14 of the 15 nonmanufacturing industries appearing in the
following table. The only exception was the telephone and telegraph
group in which slight declines in both employment and pay rolls were
reported. Data for the building-construction industry are not
presented here but are shown in more detail under the section
" Building construction."
Seasonal activity in the canning and preserving industry was
reflected in the gain of 47.1 percent in employment and 47.9 percent
in pay rolls in August. The metalliferous-mining industry reported
an increase of 11.5 percent in employment, combined with an increase
of 15.4 percent in pay rolls. The anthracite mining and bituminouscoal mining industries reported gains in employment of 8.8 percent
and 8.6 percent, respectively. These increases in employment were
accompanied by increases of 22 percent in pay rolls in anthracite
mining and 28.8 percent in bituminous-coal mining. Both industries
reported increases in average hours worked per week in August, as
well as increased hourly earnings. The retail-trade group which has
shown decreased employment and pay roll in previous August reports,
increased 4.7 percent in employment and 7.9 percent in pay rolls,
numerous establishments reporting better business, special sales, and
the effect of the N.R.A. code. The quarrying and nonmetallicmining industry reported increases of 4.2 percent in employment and
5.1 percent in pay rolls, and the wholesale-trade group reported
increases of 3.7 percent in employment and 2.8 percent in pay rolls.
The laundry and the crude-petroleum-producing industries reported
gains in employment of 2.1 percent each. The hotel industry reported a
gain of 2 percent in number of employees between July and August, and
the power and light, electric railroad, dyeing and cleaning, and banksbrokerage-insurance-real estate groups reported increases in employ
ment of less than 1 percent. The increases in employment in the two
last-named groups were coupled with slight declines in pay-roll totals.
In the following table are presented employment and pay-roll data
for the nonmanufacturing industries surveyed, exclusive of building

Average Man-Hours Worked and Average Hourly Earnings
N THE following tables the Bureau presents a tabulation of manhours worked per week and average hourly earnings based on
reports supplied by identical establishments in July and August 1933
in 15 industrial groups and 76 separate manufacturing industries.
Man-hour data for the building-construction group and for the insur
ance, real estate, banking, and brokerage group are not available, and
data for several of the 89 manufacturing industries surveyed monthly
are omitted from these tables due to lack of adequate information.
The total number of establishments supplying man-hour data in
these 15 industrial groups represents approximately 50 percent of the
establishments supplying monthly employment data.
The tabulations are based on reports supplying actual man-hours
worked and do not include nominal man-hour totals, obtained by
multiplying the total number of employees in the establishment by
the plant operating time.
Table 1 shows the average hours worked per employee per week and
average hourly earnings in 15 industrial groups and for all groups
combined. The average hours per week and average hourly earnings
for the combined total of the 15 industrial groups are weighted aver
ages, wherein the average man-hours and average hourly earnings in
each industrial group are multiplied by the total number of employees
in the group in the current month and the sum of these products
divided by the total number of employees in the combined 15 indus
trial groups.
In presenting information for the separate manufacturing industries
shown in table 2, data are published for only those industries in which
the available man-hour information covers 20 percent or more of the
total number of employees in the industry at the present time. The
average man-hours and hourly earnings for the combined 89 manu
facturing industries have been weighted in the same manner as the
averages for all industrial groups combined, table 1.

Per capita weekly earnings, computed by multiplying the average
man-hours worked per week by the average hourly earnings shown in
the following table, are not identical with the per capita weekly
earnings appearing elsewhere in this trend-of-employment compila
tion, which are obtained by dividing the total weekly earnings in all
establishments reporting by the total number of employees in those
establishments. As already noted, the basic information upon which
the average weekly man-hours and average hourly earnings are com
puted covers approximately 50 percent of the establishments reporting
monthly employment data.

Employment in Building Construction in August 1933
M PLO YM EN T in the biiilding-construction industry increased
percent in August as compared with July and pay rolls
increased 9.3 percent over the month interval.
The percents of change of employment and pay-roll totals in August
as compared with July are based on returns made by 10,765 firms
employing in August 86,771 workers in the various trades in the
building-construction industry and whose combined weekly earnings
during the pay period ending nearest August 15 were $1,846,650.
These reports cover building operations in various localities in 34
States and the District of Columbia.

Trend of Employment in August 1933, by States
N THE following table are shown the fluctuations in employment
and pay-roll totals in August 1933 as compared with July 1933, in
certain industrial groups by States. These tabulations have been
prepared from data secured directly from reporting establishments
and from information supplied by cooperating State agencies. The
combined total of all groups does not include building-construction
data, information concerning which is published elsewhere in a sepa
rate tabulation by city and State totals. In addition to the com
bined total of all groups, the trend of employment and pay rolls in
the manufacturing, public utility, hotel, wholesale trade, retail trade,
bituminous-coal mining, crude-petroleum producing, quarrying and
nonmetallic mining, metalliferous mining, laundry, and dyeing and
cleaning groups is presented. In this State compilation, the totals of
the telephone and telegraph, power and light, and electric-railroad
operation groups have been combined and are presented as one
group— public utilities. Due to the extreme seasonal fluctuations in
the canning and preserving industry, and the fact that during certain
months the activity in this industry in a number of States is negligible,
data for this industry are not presented separately. The number of
employees and the amount of weekly pay roll in July and August 1933
as reported by identical establishments in this industry are included,
however, in the combined total of " all groups."
The percents of change shown in the accompanying table, unless
otherwise noted, are unweighted percents of change; that is, the
industries included in the groups, and the groups comprising the
total of all groups, have not been weighted according to their relative
importance in the combined totals.
As the anthracite-mining industry is confined entirely to the State
of Pennsylvania, the changes reported in this industry in table 1,
nonmanufacturing industries, are the fluctuations in this industry by
State totals.
When the identity of any reporting company would be disclosed by
the publication of a State total for any industrial group, figures for
the group do not appear in the separate industrial-group tabulation,
but are included in the State totals for " all groups." Data are not
presented for any industrial group when the representation in the
State covers less than three establishments.

Employment and Pay Rolls in August 1933 in Cities of Over
500,000 Population
N THE following table are presented the fluctuations in employ
ment and pay-roll totals in August 1933 as compared with July
1933 in 13 cities of the United States having a population of 500,000
or over. These changes are computed from reports received from
identical establishments in each of the months considered.
In addition to including reports received from establishments in the
several industrial groups regularly covered in the Bureau's survey,
excluding building construction, reports have also been secured from
other establishments in these cities for inclusion in these totals.
Information concerning employment in building construction is not
available for all cities at this time and therefore has not been included.

Employment in the Executive Civil Service of the United States
HERE were 19,027 fewer employees on the pay rolls of the
United States Government in August 1933 than in August 1932.
This is a decrease of 3.3 percent.
Comparing August 1933 with July 1933 there was an increase of
1,287 employees or 0.2 percent.
The data herein do not include the legislative, judicial, or Army
and Navy services. The information as shown in table 1 was com
piled by the various departments and offices of the United States
Government and sent to the United States Civil Service Commission
where it was assembled. The figures were tabulated by the Bureau
of Labor Statistics and are published here by courtesy of the Civil
Service Commission, and in compliance with the direction of Con
gress.
Information is not yet available as to the amount of pay rolls.
However, arrangments are being made to collect this additional infor
mation and figures will be presented in the near future.
Table 1 shows the number of Federal employees inside the District
of Columbia; the number of such employees outside the District of
Columbia; and the total number for the entire service.
Approximately 12 percent of the total number of workers on the
pay rolls of the United States are employed in the District of Colum
bia.

Comparing August 1933 with July 1933, there was an increase of
six tenths of 1 percent in the number of permanent employees in the
District of Columbia. Temporary employees in the Federal city
increased 34.1 percent. There was an increase of 2.5 percent in the
total number of Government workers in Washington.
Comparing August 1933 with August 1932 there was a decrease of
3.3 percent in the number of permanent employees in the District.
However, due to the creation of a large number of new Government
agencies, temporary employees in the District increased 104.3 percent
comparing August 1933 with August 1932. Due to this large increase
in temporary workers, the total Federal employment in Washington
was seven tenths of 1 percent greater during August 1933 than during
the same month of the previous year.
August is the first month to include figures for the National Re
covery Administration. This agency had 1,077 employees on its pay
roll on August 31, 1933.
Outside of the District of Columbia, the number of permanent
employees decreased 3.1 percent. The number of temporary employ
ees decreased 12.8 percent, comparing August 1933 with August 1932.
Comparing August 1933 with July 1933, there was a decrease of 0.6
percent in the number of permanent employees, an increase of 14.3
percent in the number of temporary employees, and an increase of 0.2
percent in the total Federal employment.

Information concerning the employment and amount of pay rolls
in the Emergency Conservation Work are collected by the Bureau of
Labor Statistics from the War Department and Forest Service of the
Department of Agriculture.
On August 31, 1933, there were 276,172 enrolled men in the Forest
Service. This is a decrease of approximately 17,000 as compared with
July. The volume of employment of all units of the Emergency Con
servation Work decreased approximately 14,000 comparing August
with July.
The pay of the enlisted personnel is $30 per month, except that 5
percent of the personnel of each company are paid $45 a month and
an additional 8 percent are paid $36 per month. The pay rolls for
this branch of the service are figured on this basis. Amounts paid to
reserve officers, line and medical, are not available at the present time.
Employment on Class I Steam Railroads in the United States
EPORTS of the Interstate Commerce Commission for class I
railroads show that the number of employees (exclusive of ex
ecutives and officials) increased from 976,610 on July 15, 1933, to
1,002,768 on August 15, 1933, or 2.7 percent. Data are not yet
available concerning total compensation of employees for August
1933. The latest pay-roll information available shows an increase
from $110,360,300 in June, to $115,936,195 in July, or 5.1 percent.
The monthly trend of employment from January 1923 to August
1933 on class I railroads— that is, all roads having operating reve
nues of $1,000,000 or over—is shown by index numbers published in
the following table. These index numbers are constructed from
monthly reports of the Interstate Commerce Commission, using the
12-month average for 1926 as 100.

Wage-Rate Changes in American Industries
HE following table presents information concerning wage-rate
adjustments occurring between July 15 and August 15, 1933, as
shown by reports received from manufacturing establishments sup
plying employment data to this Bureau.
Increases in wage rates averaging 24.3 percent and affecting 1,145,576 employees were reported by 3,776 manufacturing establishments
in August. These increases reflect the adoption of the various indus
try codes or the acceptance of the blanket code in certain industries,
and, in other industries, represent a partial restoration of previous
reductions in wage rates, due to the general business improvement.
Of the 18,008 manufacturing establishments included in the August
survey, 14,230 establishments, or 79 percent of the total, reported no
change in wage rates over the month interval. The 2,041,953 em
ployees not affected by changes in wage rates constituted 64.1 per
cent of the total number of employees covered by the August trend
of employment survey of manufacturing industries.
Only two manufacturing establishments reported wage-rate de
creases.

As any sales rep knows, a large percentage of prospects will not be ready to buy during your initial conversation. Out of the hundreds of leads you contact, each are in a different stage of the buying process. Some might just be browsing, or in a planning phase. Some may be comparing your product to other before reaching a decision. An important aspect of lead nurturing is understanding which phase the buyer is in, and following up accordingly. So what can you do to make this process work for you?
Have different follow up strategies for different types of prospects. Lead nurturing is most successful when follow ups and information sent is targeted to the buyer's needs, as well as their current interest level and other criteria. It's different for every business. Take some time to categorize your prospects and determine the ideal way to follow up with each category.
Use multiple forms of communication. As I'm sure you've noticed, you will never get past voicemail with some people. Others may never check their email. Use multiple forms of communication to increase your chances of contact. If you have already spoken to the prospect, ask how they would like to be contacted in the future.
Consider frequency. People already get enough junk mail, so blasting your prospects with daily emails is only going to put up a red flag. Trust me, whether you send 5 emails or 50, they will see it – it's just a matter of whether they will open it. Space the emails out and provide quality information (the subject line is key!), and you will have a better chance.
Respond quickly. When someone finally responds or calls in, act fast. A prospect that directly reaches out to you should be top priority because the window of opportunity is narrow. This will also establish trust with the prospect, setting your closing changes higher.
Demonstrate instant value. Simply sending sales emails every one in awhile might work sometimes; however, providing valuable industry related materials in the meantime will show the buyer that your company not only has a good product, but a great resource as well. This will certainly give you an edge on the competition.
Track your interactions. Document every phone call, every update, every email. Without this, you will be scrambling for information when someone calls in, and potentially neglecting to follow up when necessary.
Understand that no lead nurturing process is perfect. Always continue to reevaluate what is working and what isn't. By tracking interactions, this gives you the ability to run reports on your system and make changes where needed.
