DEMOBILISED MEN
SUITABLE LABOUR FOR FARMS SHORTAGE OF MECHANICS Addressing the meeting of the
Thames District Primary Production Council recently as to the progress made by his Department with replacements with demobilised Grade 2 and 3 men in the council’s territory and the releases that had been made by the Army, and also details of how the scheme had been working so far. Mr R. W. Chappel said that there was still a shortage of suitable labour for farms. He also explained that the supply of motor mechanics for garages appeared to be becoming acute. It was resolved that the Production Council make representations to the Director of National Service, Wellington, that the supply of motor mechanics for garages was becoming very acute indeed in the council’s territory, and that in the opinion of the council regard should be given to the reasonable requirements of the Indus try to enable it to cope with much urgent work production directly and indirectly, as had been evidenced by the failure of an appeal by the council for the release of a man in camp who was not eligible for overseas service.
