educated. willing to lear . and of a mixed age group.
Koropchak informed the ID that it was difficult to establish
a labor trend because the method of surveyed area was not
consistent with that of 1 83. The IDC felt the use of actual
survey numbers compared t the surveyed population would
assist potential industri s of our available labor force
rather than the use of pe centages.
