HELP FOR UNEMPLOYED.
EFFORTS AT HOME. (British Official Wirelessk) RUGBY, Aug. 3. The extent to which voluntary efforts for the relief of unemployed have developed in Britain is recorded in the fourteenth annual report of the National Council of Social Service Movement, in which the Prince of Wales has shown himself active. Some 2300 centres are now at work providing help in many forms to those without employment. These centres are in constant use by over 250,000 men and women. In the last year or two the Prince of Wales has himself visited several hundreds of these centres. The King also takes . a very active interest in their work, and only yesterday a large consignment of books for the use of the unemployed was received from him for distribution among the centres.
