Subsidy to Relieve Unemployment
“NEVER SO ACUTE” CHRISTCHURCH POSITION (Special to THE SUN.) CHRISTCHURCH, To-day. With a view to relieving unemployment in the city immediately, the City Council last night decided to grant a subsidy of £1,280 to the Citizens’ Unemployment Committee for the provision of relief works suggested by the city engineer. Prior to reaching its decision, the council was waited upon by a deputation from the Citizens’ Committee.
The Rev. P. Rule said that as one who had been connected with the relief of distress for many years, he had never before known the position to be as acute as it was at the present time.
