LABOUR FOR BRITISH WAR EFFORT
Industry Must Turn To Women (British Official Wireless.) (Received March 9, 7.5 p.m.) RUGBY, March 8. Reviewing the Ministry of Labour’s unemployment figures which were issued yesterday, “The Times” says something more can be done to regularize the employment and reduce the turnover of labour from one job to another and temporary stoppages, but the amount of reserve labour for Industry is now very small—indeed scarcely existent. “The Times” concludes: “As large additional numbers of men are to be drafted to the armed forces, industry must turn to women not in employment and not usually seeking employment to supply the rapidly-expanding needs of war industries.”
