(British Official Wireless.)

RUGBY, July 28

' Mr J. H. Thomas, Minister in charge of the unemployment problem, was present at a luncheon given at Olympia; yesterday, when it was announced that £400,000 was being spent in extensions arid increased facilities in connection with next year’s British Industries Fair.

Mr Thomas said that he had come to the conclusion that there was only ono solution to the problem of unemployment, and that was to enable the goods that Britain could supply, with the be’st brains and skill in the world, to he* at the disposal of the world. Ho had'found that the British Trade Commissioners abroad were inadequate. British trade was handicapped in not having enough British representation abroad. He had decided that that handicap had to ho removed. Business men. must follow this up and send their representatives to co-operate in the . work. which. ,|he ,government was prepared to do.
