First, a friend from Washington joined her and the two women started a hospitality house for the needy. Some of the visitors wanted toshare the life-style at the cabin so more logs were added and the original six-room structure multiplied into 20 rooms, in- cluding a chapel. “I made just about every mistake possible,” Mrs. Mur said, “We cut trees in thespring, when they are full of sap and prone to mildew.

Dr. Harish C. Jain, assistant professor of per- sonnel and industrial relations, who has just completed a two-year study of native employment problems, said the unem- ployment rate among young Indians is abnormally high. He said Indians interested in urban employment have no natural aversion to material wealth and thelr turnover and absenteeism rates are no higher than those of non-Indians, They could be expected to operate within a disciplined and structured work situation and were not averse to taking on work unrelated to their traditional em- Ployment.
