BRITISH SKELETON FACTORIES
(Rec. 9.15 p.m.) LONDON, Dec. 17. “The Government is building 40 skeleton factories in south Wales in a gamble to persuade industrialists to establish businesses in unattractive areas,” says the "Daily Mail.” “A Board of Trade spokesman said they Would be built in valleys where there was considerable unemployment, but where manufacturers were unlikely to build because of poor road and rail communications and unfavourable housing conditions. ‘But if we can offer industrialists ready-made factories we hopfe that the other disadvantages will be outweighed,’ he added. Nine of the factories are now being built.”
