He said practical difficulties in gathering, figures occur because the force is decentralized and mail-openings have been carried out at "the lowest levels" with no requirement to report them.

He said, however, that he was unable to be more specific because of the diverse nature of the jobs. As revealed by The Journal Monday, the program will be nationwide with particular, attention given to areas of high and chronic unemployment. But the amount al-' located to each province was calculated on the numbers and percentage of unemployed persons.

As a result, Quebec tops the list -with $53.2 million in job-creating funds. Ontario is next in line with $40.6 million.
