“With improved times, one would have supposed that the burden falling upon the State and social organisations would have been less, but, unfortunately, the improvement in conditions has not done that; rather the reverse,” said the Minister of Justice, the Hon. H. G. R. Mason, in replying in Auckland to a deputation of social workers who had pointed out the difficulty of collecting maintenance from many husbands against _ whom orders had been, made. “Thus it does not appear that the obligation would be a diminishing one,” the Minister added, when it was suggested that the department should pay the maintenance and collect in turn from the husbands.
