LONDON, Ist April. Sir George Reid, High Commissioner for the Commonwealth, speaking before the Carpenters' Company, t-aid he wished that every working youth leaving schoo' would pot only have the opportunity, but would be strongly encouraged, to feel that his real education in lite was just beginning. While with one voice they cried: "Arm! Arm!" with another he cried: "Educate! Educate!'' It was his aim to turn the streams ot emigration to greater extent to areas within the Empire. Australia wanted to take not merely men, but children. Tens of thousands of English girls and boys were brought up at great cost by the poor law institutions, and at the age of 16 were thrown on their own resources. He would make strong representations to his Government so that these young people could be taken from their bleak homes in the Motherland to the free spaces of Australia, where they would be welcome. Juvenile emigration, Sir George Reid affirmed, was the best emigration for Australia.
