SOVIET PLANS TO RECRUIT DISCHARGED SZFRVWFMVAT 'WPC) TAR TTURF.R ThrIMMTRY Comment the USSR will repeat this year its policy of active recruitment of demobilized military personnel for work in key industrial and agricultural enterprises. In the late summer and autumn of 1954, urgent meas- ures were taken to recruit demobilized personnel for these purposes, including extensive publicity in the Mos- cow and local press, assignment of labor recruiting of- ficers to demobilization centers, and awarding of special allowances and privileges to recruited personnel. Labor recruitment efforts at this time presumably would apply to any personnel released under the special demobilization announced by the USSR follow- ing the Geneva conference, as well as to those conscripts who will complete their normal terms of service next month. The timber industry has consistently underfulfilled its production plans in past years, and thus would have a high priority in recruiting labor.
