A recent study showed that by 1967, the country will need half a million new skilled workers, but the schools at present rates will turn out less than half that number. Hand in hand wilh that shortage goes the critical lack of technicians and engineers. The two could seriously cripple the country's effort to industrialize, symbolized by a recently-opened $600 million steel mill, booming oil pro duction (up 33 per cent in the past year), plans to expand the nation's road network, mushrooming petro chemical industries, and motor vehicle production. Government Earmarks Funds In greater Buenos Aires alone, for instance, there are at present 260,000 skilled in dustrial workers and only 23,' OOOstudents in the technical and vocational schools. This year, the government has earmarked 160 million pesos (about $1.05 million) in the education budget for voca tional schools, but this is less than two per cent of the over all education budget and only one-tenth of what' the state run railroads alone are ex pected to lose this year. Another part of the problem is awakening student interest in jobs in the mechanical field such as auto mechanics, tool and die work, draftsmen. The same study showed that in the province of Buenos Aires, 8,- 146 students were preparing for "white collar jobs secretaries, bookkeepers, etc., while the 28 vocational schools combined enrolled only 10, 264 students. Engineers Leave Country On the professional level the shortage of engineers has been worsened by an outflux of scarce "brains" to such countries as the United States, Mexico and Canada, The shortage is especially acute in the petroleum and electron' ics-atomic energy fields. In almost every case, the engineers give the same gen eral reasons: Higher pay, bel ter facilities and greater chance for recognition of their work outside the country. Two men have led the battle to check this trend: The country's only living Nobel Prize winner, Dr. Bernard Houssay, and Dr. Risieri Fron dizi, brother of the president and rector of the National University of Buenos Aires. Both have repeatedly called attention to the problem and pointed up the dangers in it for Argentina. So far, however, their words have gone largely unheeded and the problem they have focused has remained just that: A problem. Southern Oregon College Discussed At Group Meeting Dr. Elmo Stevenson, presi dent of Southern Oregon col lege, discussed the colleges building program and the col lege itself at a meeting of the Jackson County Motor Court association last week. Dr. Stevenson said passage of Measure No. 6 on the gen eral election ballot will en able the college to start a construction program of about $500,000 annually for the next five years.
