SETTLEMENT PLANS.
GREAT BRITAIN AND CANADA TO CO-OPERATE. RELIEF OF UNEMPLOYMENT. CONCRETE PROPOSALS. (Received Tuesday, 9,45 p.m.) OTTAWA, July 2. When the Eight Hon. J. H. Thomas, Lord Privy Seal in the British Government, arrives in Canada in a search for the relief of unemployment in the British Isles, concrete proposals will be submitted to him by Mr. Peter Heenan, Federal Minister of Labour, which will be advantageous to both the Mother Country and Canada. These plans, Mr. Heenan said, will not only require the co-aperation of employers of labour in Canada, but the co-operation of the British Government. He has not revealed what the proposals are, but he explained that by a careful investigation many avenues will be discovered in which British workmen ean be absorbed in Canada, without impairing the opportunity of Canadian artisans.—(Australian Press Association—United Service.)
