    After tlie July holidays there was a sudden decline in trade in the Wholesale Clothing Industry, which to the end of the year did not improve. The increase in the figures relate to Temporarily Suspended Workers, and women and girls are mostly affected. The highest total last year was reached in August, when the register was 725. The totally unemployed figures have not varied to any appreciable extent. The figures are taken from the Statistical Beturns pre¬ pared about the middle of each month (on a Monday) and may vary considerably during other weeks. The area of this Exchange includes Hebden Bridge, Mytholmrovd, Charlestown, Heptonstall, Erringden, Black- shaw and Wadsworth. Now that Mytholmroyd and Heb¬ den Bridge are merged into Hebden Boyd, I should estimate that 75% of the figures refer to Hebden Boyd and Hepton¬ stall, Blackshaw 15% and Wadsworth 10%.
