The labor shortage is so acutg that. as well as envisﬂtllng a mod. eon centre to improve woo-king con- ditions, a plan has been drawn u-p to include needle-trades training in technical schools The Manitoba department of education, Winnipeg school board. three labor unions and the manufacturers oonrorrwd, are all behind the idea and it in thotqht likely training will stun later this year.

Students who 7101911’! considering attending University could enter tihe school after Grade 10 o" 11. They would be zrais-ied for various branches of the industry. such as cutting, designing, finishing, pines. ing and hiaind oewing. as well as being provided with the basic needs for a general education.
