TOUTING FOR EMIGRANTS.
♦— COMPLAINTS IN ENGLAND. By Telegraph—Press Association— Oopyrigrit London, Monday. Complaints are made by many mistresses against circulars on the subject of imigration addressed to their domestics by the Mew South Wales and Victorian Departments. It is officially explained that Victoria wanta 15,000 immigrants, and New South Wales 12,950. A circular letter has been addressed to 10 per cent, of the farmers and farm hands in the provinces, and a special letter to cooks in all the households in the southwestern suburbs of London. The New Zealand Department says: "We havn r-vr approached anybody already employed, nnd never do any surreptitious touting. We are content with legitimate advertising." Owing to the severe winter in Canadn, immigrants will possibly be chary of going overseas. The Canadian figures have fallen 70 per cent. as compared with the 6*st twc months of 1913, and the Australian 50.
