Abstract
Sweden, with a 3.4 million labour force, 45 per cent of it in commerce, transport and the service industries, tackles the problem of re‐training in a thoroughly imaginative way, as a film Investment in Manpower (col, 30 min) shows. Their National Labour Board deals with it in the round, fitting the men to the jobs, and treating its material throughout as human beings with modern human needs. There are no age limits, and prejudices about being too old to learn are firmly squashed. Rail fares to attend interview are paid, moving costs met, and grants given to keep the home going while training.
