INDUSTRIAL PROBLEMS AFTER
THE WAR.
At the British Association meeting recently interest centred in the ewanoak.b section, where land settlement and labour questions were discussed.
agricul-
the
Mr Christopher Turner turul expert, in a paper on "the outlet for labour on the land," expressed regret that the Government had not employed thousands of German prisoners in the reclamation of land. Bad they done so we might have had 50,000 acres ready for new settlement when our men returned from the war..

The next subject in this section was the replacement of men by women in industry, on which a report was present

ed
thought
ought the problem of a great surplus
of women workers after the war would Got be not 30 serious as bad been fested. The married women were for the most part in industry for the War period only and ingairies among women workers generally showed that many of them had no desire to remain in competition with
шет
But this involved the question of the increased demand for women on re petitive processes, and if, as seemed likely,
the rubdivision of processes and the highly automatic machinery in- troduced owing to war conditions had comme-to-atay, there might-be a change in the relative demand for skilled and for unskilled labour to the disadvantage of the former,
The committee did not think wagas would fall to the pro-war-level.
