DRIFT TO TOWNS.
SOCIAL DANGER IN BRITAIN. By Telegraph.—Press Assn.—Copyright. Received August 24, 5.5 p.m. London, August 23. Mr. Lloyd George, presiding at a concert in a Welsh village institute, commented on the continuous drift of people from villages to towns, which he declared was one of Britain’*? social dangers. Of all the belligerents in the war Britain had the smallest proportion of people associated with the soil, and for that reason she had the largest percentage of rejections on account of physical unfitness. Such institutes were of the greatest value to the social life of villages.
