Auckland, Monday. Forty married relief workers each with three or more children, have been dismissed from work at Mount Albert Grammar School, because the school committee, oWing to lack of funds, is unable to pay for their insurance. Meanwhile the Unemployed AsSociation is calling on all local bodies and social organisations to use their power to have the 50 pet cent. sustenance cUt restored. Mr. Jessep, d'eputy-chairman of the Unemployment Board, who was in Auckland to-day, said. the Minister's idea was that local bodies could not divorce themselves from fesponsibilities for their o'tvn citizens. He (Mr. Jessep) said if productive w;prk was not available iii the dities, ai\d was available in the country, theh |t was in the interests of the men that they. should undertake country work. It had tq be remembered that ,the sources from which the unemployment funds. tvere drawn might tend to dry up if work of a productive value was not done.
