I would go nowhere else to live,” said Lord Nuffield. Asked whether he contemplated any settlement venture in this country, Lord Nuffield said that he had at one time cherished ideals in regard to immigration and the establishment of surplus British population on the soil of the .Dominions, but at present these new people were not wanted, which changed the whole outlook.
