PROSPECTING AT ROSS
(From our own Correspondent)
The Ross Borough 'Council, Ross Prospecting Association and Ross Unemployment Committee recently held a combined meeting to devise ways and means of utilising suitable unemployed miners and others in the search for'gold. Arising out of this meeting certain recommendations were made to the government and it is to be hoped that these will meet with favourable consideration. This Council feels however in view of the publicity recently accorded to prospecting in general and to the Ross scheme in particular, that a note or warning should be sounded in oidei that men at present unemployed should not be led to believe that work of tb s nature is immediately available in the Ross district. Until such time as the Government has had time to fully consider the recommendations of the Ross bodies and until such time as a definite scheme is actually in operation the council feels it would be distinctly unwise for men without means to come t<Ross in the hope of finding work.
