PROBLEM OF UNFIT
Some Distressing Cases “One of the saddest things we have to contend with at the present time is the large number of C 3 men that turn up for jobs.” said one of the officials concerned in the employment of labour under the No. 5 scheme. “Some of them are really too old to be working at all; too old for hard work, in the open at all events.” lie continued. “Others are men with disabilities broken down in health, lame men. men with consumption, bad hearts, and all manner of complaints that really unfit them for the kind of work that can be offered them under the scheme.”
