USE OF ITALIANS IN GROWING VEGETABLES
(P.A.) WELLINGTON, October 20. Five appeals against the decision .of the man-power officer in Wellington directing Italians to take employment with the Department of Agriculture were heard by the Wellington Industrial Man-Power Committee today. The man-power officer said the department required men for vegetable growing and there was a shortage of such labour. It had been considered proper to mobilize aliens for this work, as up UH now they had not been called upon to bear personal sacrifices in comparison with those suffered by British subjects. Decision in all cases was reserved until tomorrow.
