SOCIAL SERVICES
REDUCTION OF EXPENDITURE LONDON, February 13. In the House of Commons, Mr Pethick Lawrence (Labor) deprecated the reduction of expenditure on social services. “If economists had their way,” he said, “ we should have a mean country. with mean men and women living in mean houses in mean streets. The capital of the country is not being depleted, but is being built up at the rate of £500,000,000 a year.”—A. and N.Z. and ‘ Sun ’ Cable.
