UNLIMITED OPPORTUNITIES
MIGRATION URGED COLONIES NEED POPULATION. Press Aswciation— By Telegraph—Copyright LONDON, April 17. Sir Robert Horne, in a speech at Glasgow, the first since his return from Australia, said: “We have an excessof people and a deficiency of opportunity here. The dominions have unlimited here. The dominions have Inlimited opportunity and scanty populations. Let the people go where there are opportunities. Though there is occasionally unemployment in the dominions, this is only a fugitive condition.” He suggested that Britain’s grant to aid emigration should be 100 instead of 6 per cent. The timo had come to dispense with the present financial restriction in order to carry out the programme of emigration, the success of which was vital to the welfare of Britain and the development of the dominions.—Australian Press Association.
