WASHINGTON (MarketWatch) -- The volume of help-wanted advertising in major U.S. newspapers fell in July, the Conference Board said Thursday. The help wanted index now stands at 32, versus 39 a year ago. In the last three months, help-wanted advertising declined in eight of the country's nine regions. The sharpest declines were in the western half of the Midwest, including St. Louis, Kansas City and Minneapolis. Online help-wanted ads also declined, by 4% since June, to 2.3 million, the group said.
