In 1949, Mr. Richard C.uyon, Per-sonnel Assistant, The Standard Oil Company (Ohio), conducted a survey of Training Directors on a national basis which was shed in the March-April and May-June issues of The Journal. In this comparison of locally compiled data and the data presented in the na-tional survey, it is necessary to bear in mind that the reporting sample for the San Francisco Bay Area was in most cases less than 20 per cent of that cov-ered in the national study.
