WHERE WE STARVE! AUCKLAND, Sept. 1 Mb S. Oliver, of Wellington, judge of the vocal classes at the Auckland competitions, addressing, the Junior Chamber of Commerce, to-day said that emotional starvation, a worldwide epidemic, was rampant in New Zealand. No amount of art exhibitions .symphony concerts, opera, dramatic presentations or recitals by famous overseas artists would provide the remedy. Cultural values had to spring from the people themselves. “Mankind has become so absorbed with the intricacies of living,” Mr Oliver said, “that the equally important art of living has been reduced to a dim flicker. The reintegration of our emotional existence is the responsibility of our system of education and our social organisations as well as of the individual. 'To evade that responsibility is to flee from freedom.” BIGAMY CHARGE WELLINGTON, Sept. 1 A 27-year-old factory hand, Mei Phyllis Makoare, pleaded guilty in the Magistrate’s Court to bigamy and was committed to the Supreme Court for sentence.
