§ MR. BROOKE (Tower Hamlets, Bow and Bromley)I beg to ask the President of the Local Government Board whether he has received any communication from the Eastern Model Yacht Association, asking for his interest in the establishment of a model yacht lake for the East End of London in Hackney Marshes; and whether, seeing that such a lake would be one method of draining the marshes as well as of providing work for the unemployed during this 279 winter, he will consider favourably this application.
§ * MR. JOHN BURNSI have received a communication from the commodore of the association referred to, and am suggesting that he might place his proposals before the Central (Unemployed) Body.
