Great Britain Tries To
Escape Burden Of
Unemployment
LONDON —(AP)— England's
unemployment situation grows
steadily, worse while other coun
tries oi Europe are forging ahead
gftfca brighter economic future.
, Exin-rt.financial physicians arc
considering what is heat to do for
this son spot on John Bull’s basil
nes; anatomy. Soma 1437,000
persons .art now looking hopeless
ly «hont*¥or positions here, al
though a year ago that number
was under a million. That is al-|
most four per cent of tho
iation of England. H
The hope that unenfeloyment
would lie merely a temporary phe
nomenon now seems untenable.
The currency disorders of Europe
have been;pretty well ironed out,
anil the disproportion between
British and foreign nrices is nar
rowing. But nevertheless unem-l
j.’oyi’icnf continues. ■ I
The reason seems to bo that
there arc industries here which
can never again in normal timea
nbsorb the number of men which
once was employed by them. Ac
cording to the report of the indus
trial transference hoard. Just is
sued.. there are at leaat 200,000
surplus miner* who cannot expect
io be re-employed in mining. The
■nard says, moreover, that there
nrc 100,000 unemployed in ahip-
liuilding. Iron and steel and heavy
engineering, few of whom can
hope 'to- rpgain their old positions,

no matter how good business
should becomes
Three solutions for the serious
unemployment problem hero twee
advanced. One has been accepted
by tho government, one rejected
and one’ neither accepted,nor re
jected. Tho first involves the
transferring of unemployed work'
men from their particular section
of England to another whan they
will stand more chanc* of emploj/
ment, or to tho dominions. The
government, if it accepts the re
port of tho Transference Board,
will aaaist the workmen by loans
in setting up their establishments
elsewhere.
.The second plan is to impost a
general protective tariff to In
crease profits in stricken indus
tries. The “Economist” calls this
suicidal policy. Winston Church
ill, chancsllor of the exchequer,
told a delegation of conservative
members of parliament who nrged
protection: “We ought not U
contemplate any fundamental re'
venal of the fiscal system upon
which the whole industrial and
economic structure of this country
is erected and with which it is
profoundly interwoven.”
The third idea is to
large municipal and national
works, such as roadmaking, harbor
and dock building and regional
planning of cities. Germany and
one or two other .countries have
triad this plan with considerU>l*
success.
