KINEMA NOTES.
THE WORLD THEATRE.
Mr. Lloyd George has sent a letter to Messrs Bowerman and Hendersened as cook. The case was remanded informing them that he can receive the Labour deputation on unemployment to-morrow evening. He denies that he is responsible for any delays in meet- g the Labour representatives as suggested in a letter already cabled. He deeply regrets Labour's repudiation of co-operation, saying that financiers and employers are only too aaxious to co-operate with the representatives o Labour but the latter's council preferred to submit their own ideas without hearing other viewpoints. That was not a helpful attitude in a crisis in- soluble without elective co-operation among all classes, but if the Labour
members adhere to their view the Cabinet will meet them to morrow.
