Oppusing any discriminaton in the matter of distributing benefit, where some unemployed had been contrib- utors to the fund snd others had not the general council could not agree that when a man who was fairly regu- arly “employed s entitled Lo beuefit | employed, e less fortunate o really needs mwre beuefit und not | |1 should be deprived of it altogether or subjected to u prylng inguiry into | | his_domestic circumstances, | The council thinks the existing debt | azeinst the fund should be wiped out and urges removal of administration to an unemployment benefit buatd.

In the man, the Public Assistance Commitlee of the London County Coun- | cll agrees with this position. However, the Loudon County Gouncil has had | extended experience with machinery it i set up for local relief, and thinks sumi- lar resuits might be nation-wide. In & way, this would be met (and it is urged by many) by the labor exchanges. The exchanges were swamped by the break- down of the insurance pian and the steady elimination of the conditions for ligibility.
