The Government, he added. had made
a. more liberal and generous provision
Tor postwar employment than any coun-
try in Europe at the expense of the very
overburdened taxpayers. Further. the
Government had formulated a definite
plan for unemployed former service men.
which he said would be communicated to
Parliament forthwith. The Premier said
he considered that the rich portions of
London ought to shoulder their share OF
this burden.
The Premier explained that the Gov
eminent had proposed certain schemes
TO the London County Council and had
promised to find half of the funds II
London would find the other half In
order to alleviate unemployment during
the winter. He suggested that former
service men might be employed in build
ing much needed houses If the building
trades unions were willing to relax their
rules and admit ex-service men.
