Mr. Snowden (Chancellor of the Exchequer) said the vote had been asked for in order to afford the Government an opportunity of explaining their policy, in regard to: nemployment. He hoped that the pro- posals he would submit, while they might involve the expenditure of large sums of public money, would add grently to the productive capacity of the country and to its wealth and tatable capacity, Ho] bad no doubt they would be reminded that the Labour party at the last election declared they had a positive remody for unemployment. (Opposition cheers.). They had a positive remedy for the chronie disease of unemployment, but it would

BORNEO
MOST WONDERFUL SUPER- PRODUCTION
mat unemployment from which the coun- WHAT'S WRONG
try had been suffering during the last three or four years, and there was what he would call the normal unemployment, which had been a permanent feature of our industrial system. An analysis of unemployment returns showed that if un- employment could be reduced in three of our great industries, the average of un- employment would not be higher than the figures that were considered to be normal in the days before the war-tr-was-in- teresting to note that although our for-- eign trade was 'analler we still retained our proportion of the world's commerce. He had recently had an analysis made, which, showed that our exports in value were 60 per cent. above the pre-war figure Imports were only 50 per cent, That seemed to him to lead to the conclusion that the cost of production in this country was very high. If we were to increase our foreign trade there must be a reduction in the cost of production. It had been suggested by a member opposite, aya solu- tion of the unemployment problem, that we should get millions of Chinnen to wear their shirts 2in. longer. (Laughter.) That taight appear ludicrous, but there was a great truth in it. So vast was the population of the world' using cotton goods that the slightest individual in crease in the consumption of these goods would make all the difference between prosperity and depression in the cotton. trade. We were bound to use every means we could to clemper our methods of pro- duction, Ab that when the revival of trade came along we should be able to take our full share. He wondered sometimes whe- ther in some of our industries we had not a larger number of people dependent upon them, or hoping to be dependent, than the industry could stand. It was a question whether it should be so arranged that labour could be easily transferred from particular work to other work. The solution of the unemployment problem, in the opinion of the Government, was to be found in the full development of all our national and natural resources, and in the scientific organisation of produc tion ending in the elimination of waste in every sphere and department. Cheap production did not mean cheap labour- it ought to mean the very opposite. (Soc. cheers!)
CINEMA NOTES...
THE CORONET,
In the stage version of Kick In " there were three acts, each built around a big moment in the drama. The hero's past was merely suggested in a conversa- tion, very little attempt was made to draw out the heroine's character or to relate her earlier circumstances. But in the screen version which goes by the Bame name now being showu at the Cor Juet Theatre, the scenario writer has casured continuity of plot which is the
of
good cinema film. Bert Lytell is the winning hero, Betty Comp sen his inspiring heroine and May McAvoy a pathetic girl crook.

QUERY'S THEATRE.
No villain or vamp appears in April Showers" the story of Irish young folk and Irish sentiments made by Preferred Pictures" which opens for a short ran at the Queen's Theatre to-day. However, the lovable little heroine portrayed by Colleen Moore, tries to put a vamp
into the picture by imagining that there is one who has attempts on her sweetheart, Danny O'Rourke, played by Kenneth Harlan Ruth Clifford, in the role of a society girl who starts a slum mission, the one who rouses Maggie Muldoor (Colleen Moore) to furious jealousy. In- nocent Danny's sole ambition is to become
policeman and the society, girl, with put any desires to vamp him, is only help- ing him to pass his examinations. Some delightful
is also provided in and there is a boxing scene in which the hero does not win bat receives a sound thrashing." Taken all in"all; "April Showers" is a piece of unusual entertainment, well worth see- ing. It will only be screened at the 5.15 and 9.15 performances.
