Excerpt from Index to Occupations: Alphabetical and Classified Thus, so far as practicable, the combination of elementary occupa tions was along occupational rather than industrial lines. The index is here printed in two forms - alphabetical and classified. In the alphabetical index each of the or more occupational designations of which the index is composed is preceded by a symbol indicating to which of the 428 occupations and occupation groups of the classification it belongs. In the classified index each of these occupational designations is shown under its proper occupation or occupation group, and each occupation or occupation group is pre ceded by its symbol. A number of the occupation groups may be subdivided readily, if desired, by assigning to the proposed new group a symbol not assigned to any existing occupation or occupation group and by then trans ferring to this new symbol each occupational designation which belongs to it. The transfers of occupational designations should be made first in the classified index and then the symbol for each of these occupational designations changed in the alphabetical index.
