THE EMPLOYMENT SITUATION:  MARCH 2004

   Nonfarm payroll employment increased by 308,000 in
March, and the
unemployment rate was about unchanged at 5.7 percent,
the Bureau of Labor
Statistics of the U.S. Department of Labor reported
today.  Payroll job growth
was fairly widespread, as construction employment rose
sharply and several
major service-providing industries also added jobs.
