NO AMENDMENT
TO POLICY OF UB 32 FORMS
FOR UNEMPLOYED WORKERS.
WELLINGTON, December 18. (The Unemployment Board’s introduction of Form U 832, which requites from an applicant for relief work tlie life history of himself and his family, together with an inventory of his possessions, caused many protests,. but these died down with the determination of the board not to make any amendments. It was resurrected for a few brief moments in : the Souse of Representatives when the Unemployment Board Estimates were under discussion.
I Mr ,E. J. Howard (Christchurch ■ South) detected a vote of £SOOO for printing arid stationery, and this gave him an opportunity to have a jibe at 1T832. “They want answers to a list ’of questions as long as your arm,’’ he i said, “and then every two months, the i relief worker had to fill in a modified ; edition of the form in case his status has altered. About all the information Iho can give is: ‘Yes, wife two months older and growling all the more about (these confounded forms.’”
