White House spokesman Ron Nessen says President State's Jobless 9.7 PC A I A Pennsylvania's seasonally adjusted unemployment rate remained at 9.7 per cent in Oct a a previous month. Paul J. Smith, secretary of a a i said a a i a figure shows no economic recovery is underway.

"It's pretty clear these October figures that we're still deep in a recession in terms of employment," i said. i recovery, according lo some indicators, seemed to have been underway, but it looks like it came to a halt, both here and in the nation as a whole." The seasonally-adjusted rate takes into account unemployment that would occur normally at this time of year regardless of economic conditions.

The figure was about 1,000 more than the number unem-. ployed in September and some 200,000 over the October, 1974 figure.

The number of people with jobs has remained constant through 1975, an indicator of economic stagnation, Smith said. About 4.6 million Pennsylvanians are working.
