STATE RAILWAY WORKS.
Tapering Off the Expenditure
(per pbess association).
Wellington, This Day. With respect to the Auckland telegram re the discharge of men from the Northern Trunk lines, the "Times " says that the statement cannot be correct as the whole employed on the Northern section is less than 000. About 80 or 100 were discharged because the tiontract was finished, and found so large a number cannot be profitably employed. It is always usual to reduce the number on such works at this time of the year. Tho " Times" finishes by saying that the reductions, we are assured, are not directed specially against the Northern Trunk and a similar policy may reasonably be expected on the Midland, Otago and other lines.
