LABOUR'S IMPORTANCE
Part in the Maintenance of a
Second Front
REPAIRS BEHIND LINES Rec. 2 p.m. LONDON, Aug. 23. Trainee labour must be speeded up, inefficient managements swept away and the prejudice against the training of women broken down to maintain the immense flow of materials, for a second front. This declaration was made by Mr. T. W. Agar, general secretary of the Association of Supervisory Staffs and Engineering Technicians, in an address to a conference of technicians, planning engineers and shop stewards.
He added that technicians and skilled workers must follow the invaders to repair the damage resulting from a German scorched earth policy. The conference pledged its full co-operation in obtaining the maximum production for a second front.
