FUTURE OF EMIGRATION

{Received this day at 9.30 a.m.) LONDON, July 29

Mr Garvin, in the “Observer,” states the Dominions (to not realise sufficiently that the birthrate is diminishing throughout Western and Central Europe. Abundant vitalities on this side of the Atlantic created the United States on the other. They are never going to be available in anything like the same measure for the British Dominions, which in the end will be glad and eager to receive an average of human kind. They will have to pay more for any supply, hut no price may then bring sufficient life. Europe is stabilising itself and becoming in many ways better than ever for urban masses. The vast masses of peoples in the strongest parts of Europe look less towards migration. That is the truth of the complications of which the dominions have not yet the least grasp. The Europe of the future will breed for itself and not at all for migration after the manner of former centuries. Myssolini appears in Italy to resist that tendency in vain The moral is that the dominions ought to awaken to the need of making the very best .of the present position.

The “Times” Cairo correspondent states to-day’s political proceedings, about 'which there was a slight apprehension, passed off not only without a disturbance, but an atmosphere of public indifference, which really is extraordinary.
