BRITISH EMPLOYMENT
MUCH IMPROVED ASPECT,
MANY INDUSTRIES BUSY,
(Received 11.30 a.m.) LONDON, dune (5,
It is officially stated that there wove 123,000 more employed on May 22 than on April 24, and 300,000 more than in May, 1932. The improvement is most marked in the building-, public works, brick, iron, steel and engineering industries, and metal goods, textile, clothing, dock and harbour services and distributive industries.
The “Daily Mail” says that it would lie a mistake to assume that the whole tide of trade had returned, but unquestionably there is a distinct improvement, especially as seasonable unemployment now is usually troublesome. The effect of the tariffs is being felt, and reductions should not lie granted lightly. Britain generally is
doing better than any of the leading Western nations.
