Actual construction is ex pected to begin about mid July. At the present time stu dents in grades one through eight attend classes in the park administration building, it was explained. A recent survey indicated that these i facilities arc too small and inadequate as classrooms. The space now used by the ele mentary school is needed for administrative purposes. Dependent on weather con ditions, completion of the school building is expected by the fall of 1965. It will be used by approximately 40 children of park employees. The National Park service explained that the rather unique case of the service pro viding school classrooms was due to the practical isolation of the park during much of the winter. Crater Lake Na tional park normally has one of the heaviest snow packs of any national park in the country. The utility building will be used to house the various pieces of equipment used in the park. The $13,000 con tract for the design of both the school and utility build ings was awarded to the ar chitectural firm of Ranks and Norman, Portland. Memory Gardens Memorial park.

L2L WEAKNESSES EMERGING IN TRAINING PROGRAM On Jan. 28. 1963. the Michigan Employment Security Commission in Detroit started a search for 20 men to train under the 1962 Manpower Development and Training Act for immediately available jobs as Police cadets. As of last month, it had spent 320 hours on the search, reviewed 8,900 applications, screened 139, referred 63 candidates to the Civil Service and then it shelved the project until July. Reason? Out of the entire lot the Civil Service found only six "suitable applicants." The rest simply didn't qualify for training, and now the MESC is trying to figure out how to find men who might. On Oct. 19, 1962. when the Manpower Development Act was just getting under way. an MESC survey indicated a need for 200 practical nurses in Detroit alone and for at least 1.500 in the state. As of today, almost six months later, the training of the nurses in Detroit hasn't even been started. Reason? The commission can't get the facilities neither the instructors nor the equipment to train appli cants for the immediately available jobs. On July 30, 1963, the first fiscal year during which Michi gan has been working on training projects will end. As of that date, the state will have spent only $2.2 million of a federal government allotment of $3 million for training allowances and costs in the current year. Reason? Michigan officials have found it exceedingly difficult to get the train ing program off the ground, have been hit by one bitter frustration after the other. Along with other states, Michigan has discovered that there are great problems as well as great promises involved in this project and before training retraining of America's workers can become truly effective, many changes will be essential in our attitudes, our educa tional systems, our laws. This August will mark the first annivenary of the signing of the revolutionary MDTA a significant break through in tackling the problem of training America's workers in the new and superior skills thay must have if they are to fill the jobs opening in the years ahead. For even if we take off on another economic boom, there simply will not be sufficient jobs in the United Stales society of the 1960's-70s for those who are uneducated and unskilled. In brief, the law provides S435 million of federal funds over a three-year period to finance the training of about 400,000 men and women for jobs known to exist in the areas in which the trainees live. Those to be trained must be out of work out of school and qualify mentally and physically for the training courses. To date, federal officials have approved 869 projects involving 30,200 trainees in every state except Louisiana. About 3,000 have completed training, of which a paltry 2,100 have obtained jobs. A woefully slow start indeed! Detroit's experiences with trainin-retraining arc typical of most areas, and Detroit is a showcase in which to study the problems and promises it has stood high on the list employment rate far above February, with auto production roaring at the fastest since 1955, joblessness in Michigan was 7.1 per cent against the national average of 6.1 per world arc pools of older erased by automation of factories and who now make up a "hard core" of very long-term unemployed (out of work six months or longer). In this city are pools of young work ers, both while and Negro, who are virtually unemployable because they do not have the to fill jobs. We've learned the problems and one of the big ones ii that the Manpower Act isn't set up to help those whose economic need is most desperate," said MESC director Max M. Horton, when I interviewed him In Detroit rec ently. "The act requires that those trained have baiie qualifications for a job, and many can't even read, write or talk properly. "Before we can start to people literate, and this is requiring a different approach. There arc other things seriously wrong too and one is our vacational education system. Details tomorrow.
