The conference adopted the fol- lowing report on the subject of present unemployment and relief conditions:

"2. Attention is directed, however, to the following matters as worthy of consideration by the Federal Government. -

"A—Percentage oi financial re- sponsibility: while some provinces desire to increase in tile proportion - contributed by the Dominion, other provinces are satisfied with the present division and do not feel that an increase should be asked for.

"B.—Medical services: In the opinion of the committee a limited expenditure for medical attention, where circumstances render such expenditure necessary, might be ra- garded as coming within the scope of the definition of direct relief.
