MOVE FROM LONDON
SOME CIVIL SERVANTS GOING TO COUNTRY MEASURE OF PRECAUTION. NO GENERAL EVACUATION. By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright. LONDON, September 12. A Ministry of Information communique states that the Government is taking steps to transfer from London a limited number of departmental staffs who can perform their duties away from the centre of government without loss of efficiency. Seven to eight thousand persons will be evacuated, though none of the departments concerned is evacuating wholly. There is no question of the whole Government leaving London. It is emphasised that the evacuation is only a natural measure of precaution in decentralisation, following the example of many London businesses.
