(By Telegraph-
WELLINGTON, Last Night. For several years the Public Servjce has been hoping to Becure a complete re-grading of positions, and the long process has now reached a point clpsely approaching completion. The Primo Minister, the Bt, Hon. M. J, Savage, stated to-day that he had Teeeived the report of the Uniformity Committee of the Public Service on this questioa through the Public Service Commissloners. "The Government has now to go into the whole position," explamed Mr ^avage, "and I am bound to 'say that public sorvants have not besn fairly treated in the past. Regrading has been held up and public servants have had to suffer. We have inherited this, among a thousand and one other sins, from our predecessors. "The Government," he added, "recogmsea that regrading will be an ex- ' pensive process. It is expensive now but was cheap in the past at the expense of the public servants. Regrading is one of the immediate Cabinet matters, and we shall have to see that everyone gets a decent standard of life, whether in the Public Service or out of it."
