Work gang on the canal embankment, 1937

A new canal with paved sloping banks curves away towards the mountains; in its bed and along the embankment dozens of young men in shorts and vests work at once, shovelling stones, tipping wheelbarrows down a plank ramp and levelling the lining, while a timber trestle crosses the water in the foreground. Such projects were meant to show the Labour Service as the school of the nation, where the sons of workers and of the middle class dug side by side.
