D. G. SuUivan by an Auckland manuf aeturer, • The writer states that his output of footballs has dropped from approximately- 9000 last year to. 2000 this season, although fortunatcly ho has been ahle to divert his etaff to other branches of leather wprk, primarily as a result of the demand for travelling I'equasites for the Coronation, There. is a possibility, however, that this increased demand for other leather goods may not be sustained The writer points out that in India - there is no limit on hours of work and workers receive small wages fpr their labour.
