to utilise folly the skills of available manpower, in certain mechan leal lines, aiilhl'nt trained workers will not be evallable when pending Industrial expansion la < ompletad. To block the growth of a labor bottleneck In Indiana, a training program baa been developed to supply Industry's manpower needs. The movement bores Into the problem from two directions. 1. Development of skills of employes within defense Industries, facilitating advancement from mechanical work to supervisory levels. J Development of basic skills In prospective defense workers enabling them to perform slmpllfled mechanical operations under the eyes of trained workers, or at least shortening the breaking In period. Under the flrat phase may be Included “supplementary'' courses for defease workers snd a "train
Ing within Industry" pregram. When an employer anticipates needs tor certain mechanical skills within his anop. bls workers are given training In supplementary courses, prepared especially for them. On April 1, I .Ml men and women were enrolled In such cuss sea in II Indiana cities The federal commission which sells employers on the Idea of “training within Industry" dellnee Its purpose as seeking to ''aselsl defense Industries to meet their man power needs by training each worker In industry to make use of his best skill up to the maximum ot his Individual ability." Under these two programs, work ere are advanced as far as possible. Production proceases are then broken down Into simpllged operations and employes who once performed a variety of operations, are put In charge of semi-skilled workers who have been trained In the second general phase of the program to perform the simplified tasks. The second general pause of the program, concerning persons outside defense work. Includes four branches of training: 1. Pre-employtncnt or refresher courses for WPA workers and unemployed On April 1. l.«ll enrollees were participating m classes in 1* cities. The courses include instruction on a variety ot lathes, presses and other machines, blue print reading and other work designed to meet the local needs of industry 2 Mechanical training for out of school youth. This program has been allotted fIM OPO In Indiana to date Approximately l.fiOO persons in 36 centers are learning bow to repair and maintain gas and deisel engines, and are studying metal work, woodworking and elementary electricity. 1.

than a down Indians ritlra, la part of a nationwide effort to provide Industry with thralaed men. and Includes such subjects are Industrial oloctroalce. tlmo study and metallurgy Correlated to the defense training program but falling outside the two major phases mentioned above are the collegr-level training courses. wherein beginning engineering students are trained quickly in one phase of engineering so they can function In supervisory rspacHles for defense production; the civilian pilot training program under the civil aeronautice authority; and a continuing program of the department of vocational Industrial education. The latter Includes a day school program for high school students and a part-time tralaing program for apprentices in Industry. An evening trade-extension course carried on for more than N years, has been expanded Into the supplementary course for workers within industry. No estimate of the total number of workers in defrnse training Is available. nor have deltaite stallstlca been complied on the percentage of trainees who go Into defense work. However, studies covering narrow holds of the state picture roughly Indicate the efßcleucy of the program. A sampling of personnel men Indicates general approval of the work but also a hope for reshaping of parts ot the program. ——o" 1 * “Plenty Os Food” Needed For Dinner Os Schwarts Family When Christian J.
