Mr. BETTERTON

According to returns which have been received, the number of men engaged on relief works and schemes in Glamorganshire at 38th November, 1925, wholly or partly assisted from national funds, was 1,959. The number of schemes actually in operation was 49, and there are six schemes which have been approved for this winter but on which work had not been commenced.
