MANY NEW FACTORIES
INDUSTRY IN BRITAIN WORK FOR NEARLY 50,000 (British Official Wireless.) Itecd. 10 a.m. RUGBY, Aug. 25. Last year 510 new factories, employing nearly 50,000 workers were opened in, Britain and- 182 were extended. Of the new factories," 213, employing 19.0C0 people, are in Greater London. The Board of Trade survey of 1935 industrial development recording these figures finds no evidence of a drift to the south of England in the sense that the new factories there are the results of transfer from the north. The net movement is shown to be in the opposite direction.
