LONDON, February 21
In the House of Commons, Mr Thomas, answering a question, said the total emigrants in 1913 to Australia, New Zealand, Canada, South Africa and Newfoundland was 272,804. The average for the ten years 1920-30 was 105,029. The totals for the firs* nine months of 1932 was only 8726.
