UNEMPLOYED PROBLEM.
RELIEF WORKS CONDEMNED. LONDON", October 16. The report of the central unemployed body in London emphasises the uselessness of relief work, which, the report states, attracts not the best type of unemployed, but those who are deficient in physique and in capacity for work. The expenditure on immigration had, the report added, fallen from £40,000 in 1906-1007 to £5107 in 190S-190!"., chiefly owing to immigration restrictions in Canada. Otherwise, the immigration work of the year had been satisfactory. Single men sent to Canada after their first season had already repaid 60 per eect of the sums advanced to them.
