"In the first place, we got our demobilization through very quickly indeed. from 8.000.000 to 1.500.000 people; all absorbed liito civilian life. and the whole plan ivorked very smoothly Tire wheels of industry began t: turn again.

"Then we were able to lay the foundations of a very broad hous- ing programme. to get our work- ing population reestablished in the right places. There was great extension of social services.
