MANPOWER BREACHES
When a person defied and kept on defying the orders of the manpower officer the only thing to do was to send tlie person to prison. Mr. Harley, S.M.. told Marjory. Carleen Hunt in the Magistrates Court, Lower Hutt., when she appeared before him after refusing to return to work to which sho had been directed. The evidence was that she had left the job to which she had been directed after 4? hours’ work, and would not go back again. The magistrate told Her ho did not wish to send her to prison, and as her solicitor had given an assurance that she would return to work, he would convict her and ord< r her to present. herself for sentence if called on within three months.
Patricia Margaret Hoyle, who had already returned to work, was convicted autl discharged.
