one of the questions which would be specially discussed with the Can- adian authorities by Lord Lovat. Under Secretary who is going to Canada shortly.

Rt. Hon. Mr. Amery said he was in close touch in this matter with the British Minister of Labor.

The Ministers’ attention was drawn to the Premier of Ontario's remarks about UnltedBtatcs“ infllk encc and methods permeating Can- adian life. The question was asked whether the British government would co-operate on Premier Fer- guson's proposal for an empire con- ference of "men of affairs" to re- view the means of strengthening angle-Canadian relations.

l-lon. Mr. Amery replied that the British government could hardly initiate the proposed conference but they would always be glad to co-op- cratc with other governments of the Empire in schemes ‘for development of trade.

The report says there are Oppgy- tunities for some older family men to settle in Britain in connection with reforestation schemes, and largo numbers could be absorbed in the Dominlons.

The board stresses the “tragic problems" of 300.000 unemployed men in Britain and refutes the idea that the mon themselves are un- Wllllll! to make the necessary effort to improve their situation, or that they are not adaptable to new con- ditions.
