IMPREST SUPPLY BILL ,
Unemployment was the sole topic of yesterday's debate on the Imprest Supply Bill "in the House of Bepresentatives. The actions and. policy of tho Unemployment Board came in for strong criticism,, from the Labour benches, while- on the other hand, it was just as strongly defended by Gov. ernraent speakers. Members were" anxious to get away for tho" week-end, and when tho ordinary time of adjournment, 5.30 p.m., passed, many' slipped away frpin the 'Chamber. Urgency had been' .granted for the measure, and so the House continued to sit -until 6.30 p.m., when the Bill was put through- its final stages at a rapid pace. The* House- adjourned until 2.30 p.m. on Tuesday. , . * The Legislative Oouncilgave further consideration, -to the Beligious Instruction in Schools Enabling Bill, but the debate on the measure was adjourned until next Wednesday.
