* * • Writing last week on the Bill which

the Government have based on the Blanesburgh Report, we expresed the strong hope that the Government, though unable to adopt all the financial recommendations of the Report at present,. would add a rider to their Bill. This rider would pledge them to adopt all the financial recom- mendations as soon as the finances of the Unemployment Insurance Fund made this :possible. A unanimous Report is much too good a thing to be ignored. We read with much satisfaction in the. Times of Thursday that the Government will probably do this.
