BOARD OF TRADE REPORT. By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright. London, August 10. The Board of Trade's first report on unemployment insurance in four scheduled trades shows that about 2,500,000 were insured against unemployment during the year, of whom previously only one-fifth were insured against unemployment. The employers', workmen's, and State's contributions aggregated £2,400,000, and the expenditure £700,000. The scheme had been accepted generally without much trouble.
