Postal Enquiry.
CHARGES UTTERLY REFUTED
[by TELEGRAPH —PER PRESS ASSOCIATION.]
WELLINGTON March 1. Some time ago wide i>nGlic interest was aroused by the hearing before a Commissioner, Mr Hunt S.M., of, charges made against principal officers of the Postal Department by 0. C. Mazengnrb, and adopted by the Post and Telegraph Officers Association. The Commissioner has now submitted his report, during the course of which he says “In my opinion the Post and
Telegraph Officers Association utterly failed to prove any of the charges they made against the administrative and other principal officers ol the Post and Telegraph Department. Not only did they fail to prove them but the evidence adduced completely satisfied me that the officers entrusted with the investigation of charges against postal officials, performed their difficult and unpleasant duties in an absolutely fair and proper manner. The hearing lasted three days and at the conclusion Mr Mnzengarb (solicitor to the Association) and who wrote the lettm' containing the charges, unreservedly withdrew them.”
In view of the failure of the Association to prove its case, the Commissioner orders it to pay the Department £SO by wav of costs.
