parts
of
the
province
and
advises
th?
local
committees
of
situations
in
these
other
parts.
The
regional
office
also
communicates
views
of
the
locals
to
the
head
6fffce
of
the
Department
of
Labor
in
Ottawa.
In
this
"way
a
direct
andcoj:tlnuous
interchange
of
information
is
maintained
between
.all
parts
of
the
province
and
the
Oomhv
ion
labor
officials.
The
requirements
of
local
em-I
plovers
are
considered
and
the
state
of
the
lccxl
lftbor
situation
is
reviewed.
One
problem
that
is
serious
throughout
the
province
and
indeed
throughout
Canada
is
the
employment,
of
men
and
women
over
40
years
of
age.
A
research
into
the
solution
e4
this
problem
is
bein?
undertaken.
Employers
and
the
pubMc
alike,
it
is
felt,
should
recognize
that
tho
age
of
a
man
is
not
necessarily
any
handicap
in
the
labor
world.
A
willingness
to
work,
the
value
of
experience,
steadiness
and
reliability
often
make
the
older
worker
as
valu&tote
as
the
younger,
more
ictive
tout
inexperienced
worker.
There
should
be
a
place
for
both
the
young
and
the
old
to
en-Rage
in
gainful
occupation.
In
this
community
there
are
men
who
could
do
part-time
work,
such
as
gardening
and
household
repairs,
and
there
aff
householder
wl
want
juai
this
type
Jt
work
done.
The
community
should
be
able
to
bring
the
would-toe
worker
into
touch
with
the
would-toe
employer
to
the
benefit
and
satisfaction
of
both
parties.
This
Is
a
situation
that
local
Initiative
shouW
recogntee
and
solve.
The
committee
nas
also
frequently
discussed
the
need
for
apprenticeship
or
similar
training
In
the
trades.
It
learned
with
pleasure
that
recently
two
apprentices
were
engaged
locally
and
there
is
a
good
prospect
of
a
third
belrrg
taken
on.
