EMPIRE MIGRATION
PROBLEMS TO BE FACED AFTER WAR. (British Official Wireless.) RUGBY, December 2.

The Dominions would want skilled industrial workers, but there would be no room for the agricultural immigrant usually associated with immigration in the past.

The matter was for the Dominions as much as foi’ the United Kingdom.
