I don't know what they've done now. I haven't had the heart to go look-see in recent years. I've been to Kew twice and each time it nearly bowled me over.

Nevertheless as you followed their operation through you got the picture of the extraordinary skill the English have in handling a situation and handling government operations without all this efficiency and without all these mechanical and office aids that we have. They didn't need it. Here was a man who wanted his unemployment compensation. He wasn't entitled to it unless he had applied at the proper employment office for work, had made an effort to get work and they had not been able to provide him with work. He made the statement and the person who was in charge of that listened to him, asked him pertinent questions, scolded him a little if he hadn't been energetic enough about hunting for a job himself when the office told him they didn't have one, told him that he couldn't lie back on his determination to be a plasterer and only a plasterer.
