DEARTH OF LABOR.
Per Press Association,
Wellington, April 6,
The experience of the manager of Petone Woollen Mills bears out the statements sent from various parts of the Dominion as to the shortage of-girl labour. He states that there is a great dearth of girls, and as a consequence ten looms in his company’s mill are standing idle. Nearly every department in fact is in want of girls and boys. In many cases the company is employing married women at 35s per week to fill vacancies.
