PLIGHT OF REFUGEES
IMMENSITY OF PROBLEM STATEMENT BY ARCHBISHOP (British Official Wireless.) Presi Association—By Telegraph —Copyright RUGBY, October 27. Speaking on the refugee problem, the Archbishop of Canterbury said he was staggered by its immensity and difficulties. Each problem must be tackled by itself, though it might be only a fraction of what would have to be done in the aggregate. The British nation, together with other European countries, could not escape some responsibility for the circumstances which had driven the Ahyssinians from their homes. They were now guests of the British Empire, and among them were 1,500 children, who were chiefly in Kenya. Local authorities were doing all they could, but more voluntary effort was needed in the form of medical assistance, clothing, and in education.
