During the financial year, the un- employment fund owing to the improved conditions of employment, has accumu- lated a surplus on insurance account of about £5,250,- 000.

As this appears to be more than sufficient to pro vide against winter contin- gencies, the Minister of Labour has decided to apply half of it towards repayment of borrowings by the Fund which total £150,000,000. Repayment is being made as various parts of the debt fall duc.-British Wireless,

DUNKLEY'S COSTLY OVER-KEENNESS

HONGKONG DISMALLY FAILED IN THE IN- TERPORT MATCH AGAINST MALAYA TO-DAY AFTER THE EARLY BATSMEN HAD PUT THEM WITHIN SIGHT OF VICTORY.

MALAYA WON BY FOURTEEN RUNS.

The end came when Dunkley, with everything depending on him, called the injured Goodwin for an absurdly short run, was signalled back but could not reach his creasc.

It was a tragic end to a thrilling match, although it was in tune with Hongkong's methods of trying to score rapidly when time was ample. Ninety-five runs were scored before lunch-excellent going but at a cost of six wickets. Even then there was a fighting chance, but Owen-Hughes got out in being extra-cautious, and a collapse followed.
