Most of the men working for me have

What we need in this country IS
more men with technical training.
We have enough doctors, lawyers and
literary men. There are plenty OF
openings for ambitious men in this
country. Why is it that we nave SO

that there is lack of such positions,
but rather. that there is a scarcity OF
men of sufficient calibre to fill them.

onlpp,ne Congestion At London Docks
Said to Be Of an Extraordinary
Character.

A writer to the London Times de.
scribes the Victoria and Albert docks
at Tilbury as being 'crowded to their
fullest capacity with big ships many
of which, look absolutely dead for the
simple reason that they can not be un.
loaded because there is nowhere to
put their cargoes." OF ships carrying
Australian meat it is said to be "a
common thing to wait anything up to .
month for berth and to lie another
month tied up against the wharf, nm
loading and reloading." Inefiiciency Of
labor is in large degree responsible.
for the average discharging output per
shift of ID men in nine-hour day has
been reduced from 100 to 63 tons. The
cause is partly the loss of many good
men in the war, partly loafing on the
job to make work for as many men as
possible. Congestion Of the ports IL
attributed to state control over essen
tial imports, to state control over rail-
roads. and to reduction of the hours Of
labor. BY these means the carrying
power of ships has been reduced at
least so per cent below pre-war stand
ards.
