THOUGHTS FOR THE TIMES
WAGES ADJUSTMENT DlFEloui;rm
In various conditions governing industry in New Zealand there are features that are undeniably a hindrance to the prosperity of industry, which is all-important to the workers themselves, Wages have value only in relation to what they can purchase. It is highly important that the cost of living shall come down, but its maintenance is contributed to througu adherence to conditions that are keeping industry from progressing, and which prevent it from finding employment for a greater number j of workers. It becomes a question of which is the better course--adjust-ment or the prospect of increasing unemployment.
