MASS IMMIGRATION SEEN AS SOLUTION
LONDON, Aug. 17. "The Aus'tralians ars tentatively considering taking a slice of our population and of our national debt j corresponding to the number they take," said the .Labour Commoner, Dr. Rees Williams, in a speech at Croydon. "Other Dominions may be prepared to do the same." Dr. Williams said that if the Government's efforts to overcome Britain's economic plight failed, the final solution would be found in the reduction of the population by mass immigration. /'If Australia and Canada each take 25,000,000 and New Zealand 6,000,000 to 8,000,000, there would be a great change in the world's balance of power."
