BOYS DON’T WANT TO LEAVE HOME
OBSTACLES TO JUVENILE MIGRATION. (United Press Association—By CableCopyright.) London, August 8. Despite the display of cinema films and lectures, states the juvenile advisory committee of the Ministery of Labour, the response of suitable boys to the Empire settlement scheme has been very small. It has been almost a complete failure in London, where boys show a rooted objection to leaving home. The same experience was encountered in South Wales, where juvenile unemployment is most acute. Both boys and parents disfavour emigration. In Glasgow the position is much the same. Generally speaking, the main obstacles to juvenile migration are parental objection, the town boy’s distaste for country life, and distrust of a strange environment.
