THE EMPIRE DOLE.
NO VISIBLE DISTRESS.
THAT GREAT SUBSIDY.
AND THE COAL TRADE.
{By Cable.—Press Association.—Copyright.)
(Received 10.30 a.m.) LONDON, August 11. The "Manchester Guardian," in an editorial headed "The Empire Dole," asks: "What's wrong with the Empire that it is put on the pauper roll? "Why ehould we limit the coal eub- | sidy for nine months, yet give the Empire a subsidy without any definite limit, J indeed with a strong implication that it ! should go on for ever? "Our grievance," continues the article, "is not the way in which the money is spent, but the Government's decision to make a gift of that size at such a time in aid of an institution which is not in visible distress."—(A. and N.Z. Cable.)
