of the country do not pay. In conclusion
the ex-Premier declared that Statesmen
ana Parliament must confront
the question of how best TO
the present general distress. 1t was
growing while the population was in
creasing, and caused emigration. Gov
ornamental support of private enterprises
might be a good way To afford temporary
