ECONOMICAL PROGRESS AND DEMOGRAPHY
1.    Approximately half the USSR territory is economically well developed. The nearest task is to develop the other half in a planned manner, that is, the tundra in Siberia, the Far East, the deserts and semideserts in Central Asia and Kazakhstan. Much has already been done in these lands. But no matter what projects1 are to be built manpower2 is always the № 1 problem.
2.    Manpower has to be invited from the more developed areas. Can the industrialized zone share a part of its manpower resources without harming its own development? Our society is vitally interested in making migration, which is necessary for developing new territories.
3.    Our economy needs methods capable of making the interests of society and of separate individuals coincide to the utmost.3 Large sums are spent on attracting a worker to move and to settle at a new place of work. The securing of manpower resources for the development of a new area and the establishment of a permanent population in it are the main tasks of today.
4.    The need to launch projects in harsh conditions4 calls for5 special attention not only to the professional aspect, but also to the physical and moral qualities of the workers. This makes it necessary to place new demands on the selection of people who want to come to new construction sites. They should be judged by their physical and intellectual abilities, the ability to perform definite functions, capability to adapt to the new conditions of life and work, their psychological features, etc.
5.    These demands are fulfilled best of all when the workers are transferred to6 the projects in an organized way within production collectives, formed earlier and having work experience. BAM proved that such an approach is effective. The stability of such collectives has a favourable influence not only on the activities of the enterprises themselves, but on the entire system of regional manpower resources.
