                      MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND

                   ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

                        AND FINANCIAL CONDITION

Results of Operations:

Second Quarter

Sales of services in the second quarter of 1995 totaled $652,417,000, 
an increase of 14.3% from the same period in 1994.  Modest growth in 
domestic sales, at less than 10% over the same period in 1994, 
reflected slowed economic conditions in the United States economy and 
management's continued  challenging of low yielding, higher risk light 
industrial business.  International sales continued to grow at double 
digit rates and benefited from the inclusion of OK Personnel Service 
Holding SA in Switzerland, purchased in July, 1994.

Cost of services, consisting of payroll and related costs of employees 
assigned to customers, increased 12.7% in the second quarter as 
compared to the same period in 1994.  Average hourly wages and related 
costs increased over 6.0% from 1994 due to inflation and a shift in 
business mix toward higher margin service lines.  

Gross profit of $132,678,000 was 20.9% higher than 1994 due to both 
increased volume and gross profit rates which, combined, averaged 20.3% 
compared to 19.2% in 1994.  This increased rate of gross profit was 
related principally to a greater mix of sales in higher margin service 
lines, such as office and technical.  Strong growth of international 
sales carrying higher gross profit rates also contributed to the 
overall increase in margins.

Selling, general and administrative expenses were $107,789,000 in the 
second quarter, an increase of 22.3% over the same period in 1994.  
This increase resulted largely from expected growth in business 
activity, inclusion of newly acquired operations, and continued 
aggressive investments in new service lines and programs, which promote 
and improve service quality and customer satisfaction.

Earnings before income taxes were $27,210,000, an increase of 16.9%, 
compared to pretax earnings of $23,275,000 for the same period in 1994.  
The pretax margin was 4.2%, a .1 percentage point gain over the second 
quarter of 1994.  The increased gross profit rate on sales and volume 
increases were the principal reasons for the improvement in pretax 
earnings when compared to the second quarter of 1994.

Income taxes were 38.8% of pretax income, which was a .8 percentage 
point increase over the applicable tax rate for the second quarter of 
1994, due to reduced credits available from the U.S. targeted jobs tax 
credit program.  The program was discontinued effective January 1, 
1995.

Net earnings were $16,660,000 in the second quarter of 1995, an 
increase of 15.5% over the second quarter of 1994. Earnings per share 
were $.44 compared to the $.38 in the same period last year.

The quarter included the results of operations of The Wallace Law 
Registry, Inc., acquired on April 28, 1995.  The transaction was 
accounted for as a purchase and was not material.



Year-to-Date


Sales of services totaled $1,273,102,000 during the first six months of 
1995, an increase of 15.6% over 1994.  This increase reflects continued 
growth in the volume of domestic and especially international sales, 
particularly in Europe.  Sales of OK Personnel Service Holding SA in 
Switzerland (completed July, 1994) and The Wallace Law Registry, Inc. 
(purchased as of April, 1995) are included with 1995 sales.

Cost of services of $1,018,406,000 was 14.5% higher than last year, 
reflecting volume growth, acquisitions, modest inflationary increases 
in hourly payroll costs and a shift towards higher margin service 
lines.

The gross profit increased 20.4% in 1995 due to increased sales volume, 
acquisitions, and a rate of gross profit that averaged 20.0% for the 
first half of 1995 compared to the 19.2% rate of 1994.  This change 
reflects the increased mix of business in higher margin service lines 
such as office and technical, plus strong first half sales growth in 
international operations.

Selling, general and administrative expenses of $212,094,000 were 20.1% 
higher than last year, reflecting higher business activity, the 
acquisition of new businesses and investments in new programs.

Earnings before taxes were $47,312,000, an increase of 23.9% over 1994.  
These earnings averaged a pretax margin of 3.7%, or .2 percentage point 
improvement over 1994. Income taxes were 38.9% of pretax earnings and 
were .9 percentage point higher than last year's first half income tax 
rate.  As explained above, the elimination of the U.S. targeted jobs 
tax credit, effective January 1, 1995, is the principal reason for this 
rate increase.

Net earnings were $28,922,000, or 22.3% higher than the first six 
months of 1994.  Earnings per share were $.76 compared to $.62 last 
year.

Financial Condition

Assets totaled $676,505,000 at July 2, 1995, an increase of 5% over the 
$642,098,000 at January 1, 1995.  Working capital decreased $2,040,000
during the half-year period.  The current ratio was 2.4 at July 2, 
1995, a decline of .1 percentage point since January 1.  Increased 
business activity and capital expenditures, including the acquisition 
during the second quarter of 1995 described above, accounted for the 
change.  Enhancements to automated systems in all branches continue to 
be made and were a major element of capital spending.

The quarterly dividend rate applicable to Class A and Class B common 
shares outstanding was increased to $.20 per share in the second 
quarter of 1995.  This compares to a dividend rate of $.18 per share in 
the second quarter of 1994.

Management believes the financial condition of the Company continues to 
be exceptionally strong, which enables it to fund working capital 
requirements and longer-term growth opportunities from internal 
resources.
