DEMAND ROAD WORK TOHELP
 UNEMPLOYED

LONDON, Feb. f (by Associated Press).-The proposal by the govern ment to alleviate unemployment by big roadmaking and house building schemes and other work of public utility is called inadequate by the leaders of the unemployed.
 Official returns give the number of registered workless in the United Kingdom on December 10 as 591,O74, an increase of 70,721 during the pre- ceding fortnight. London alone ac- counts for 141,53S and the proportion Of men to women out of work Is roughly as to l.
 Labor leaders say these figures are incomplete. They declare that at least 250,000 other manual workers and as many clerical workers are out of jobs, though not on the government books. These would bring up the workless army to well over 100000 and, counting their dependents, a 6AOhu LOtil ID dlIlfSu at Ol ClOSG upon 4,500,000 sufferers from lack of work in one way or another.
 Clamor for re-opening trade with Russia is growing and the chairman of the London Unemployed Council has told the Associated Press repre- sentative that by acting in concert with all other labor organizations, they were confident of being able to force the governments hands.
 ''If an American business man, is able to get $3,OO0,00O,OOO worth of con- tracts out of Russia, that means that there is another $3,O000OO,O00 worth waiting there for British trade" he said
 Meanwhile, public charity has been deeply stirred by reports made by so- cial workers on many cases of gen. uine distress, with the result that gifts, both in money and kind, have been pouring into the different local unemployed centers. The danger of food riots which threatened some weeks ago, has apparentaly to a large extent vanished.
