An Artisan’s Cycle.
Skilled tradesman, wharf labourer, harvester, builder’s labourer, ploughman, threshing-mill worker and now, after eighteen years, back again in his trade. That is the record of a man who enrolled at a southern placement bureau, after havnig been on relief since July, 1931. Similar cycles are being travelled by many men whostarted their industrial lives in important, trades and gradually drifted Into casual occupations and almost automatically on to relief. The placement scheme has in numerous instances checked this drift, and men who have not followed their trades for many years are eventually getting back to them and making good.
