NATIONAL INSURANCE.
UNEMPLOYMENT PROVISIONS.
By Telograph?*-Fress Association.—Copyright. London, May 24< In the House of Commons to-day Mr. Sydney Buxton (President of the Board of Trade) moved the second reading of the National Insurance Bill.
Mr. Buxton denied that the unemployment proposals were hazardous, and said that they were founded on good actuarial calculations. It was important to start the scheme in years of good trade, in order to accumulate a substantial reserve.
(Received May 26, 1 a.m.)
London, May 25.
The debate on the National Insurance Bill was adjourned after general approval of the principle had been expressed.
