Migration to England from
Jamaica has been increasing dur
mig the past year, as a result of
British manpower shortages in the
unskilled and semi-skilled trades.
The problems of social adjustment
winch arise in the British cities
have occasioned considerable dis
cussion of the parallels between
this migration and the migration
of Puerto Ricans to the industrial
centers of the continental United
States. The Puerto Rican gov
eminent has maintained offices on
the mainland since 1948 for the
purpose of aiding the migrants and
the communities into which they
move in speeding up the adjust
ment process. Chief Minister Man
ley approached the Puerto Rican
government with the idea of secur-
ing technical assistance" in help
ing work out a program in Jamaica
and in Bitain which might benefit
from it's experience.
Senior will fly to England on
July Is, spend two months in a
field survey, and return to Jamaica
