REFUGEES FOR DOMESTIC SERVICE
The opinion that the freer admissioii; to New Zealand of refugees . from I Europe would assist in solving the problem of providing domestic help was expressed by Miss M.;G. HaVelaar, president of the Christchurch branch of the National Council of Women; speaking at the Choral Hall in: support of a proposal . that the Government should be requested to facilitate the admission of European : refugees into the Dominion, states the "Press." "We women all know that at present the demand far exceeds the supply,and those of us who are connected with the Women's Employment Committee know that everyone who asks for work can be given a job," she said. "Therefore I think there would be no danger in introducing a number of women to this country who would be willing to. take up domestic service."
