TRAINING FOR SKILL.

Foresighted employment service workers and factory
managers are seeking to speed up production by pro
lIucing skilled workers. America has been paying too
much attention to perecting machinery they tell us and
has allowed human machinery fingers to remain un-
skilled.
representative Of the U. S. Employment Service
rave these striking statistics recently.
In a certain small New England district there are
9OOO idle mechanics In that same locality the rafoads
want 800 skilled locomotive reparmen Out OF that 9ooO
only 2O can be recommended having sufficient skill
FOR the work Many boiermakers wanted, but only
one man in ten applying for such work is really skilled
They are almost good enough, but just miss it.
In city in the western part OF New York Where lo'
900 men are ide highgrade machine shop cannot tnd
thirty satisfactory men for its work representative OF
one big industry says that factory workers in that line
are not more than 60 per cent efficient
Increased production is the crying need OF the hour
For while enlargement Of factories and great eXpan-
sion Of machinery is not the thing to solve the problem
But skilled hands and trained minds directing them can
increase production without expense and without length
enng hours of labor.
Today there are 800 training departments in Ameri
can factories and their number is steadily increasing In
these training schools workers made really efficient
Their increased skill gives them greater satisfaction in
their work Acquired skill in one line too opens the way
to acquire skill in others WE'LL and so enlages the Held
of progress Skill brings increased wage to the work
er and increased product the manufacturer and to the
public which needs it most of all.
