SHORTAGE OF SKILLED LABOUR
PLAN FOR ARMAMENT WORK IN BRITAIN RUGBY, October 25. Sub-contracting as a method of overcoming the shortage of skilled labour for armament work in particular districts was mentioned by Sir Charles Craven, chairman of Vickers-Arm-strong, at the launch at Barrow-in-Fumess of the T class submarine Thistle. It is the third of six submarines on order with Vickers-Arm-strong and is the 176th submarine launched from the Barrow yard. Sir Charles said that the advantage of sub-contracting .o the shortage of skilled labour was that it obviated uprooting workers and their families.
