NATIONAL JOB
UNEMPLOYED RELIEF NOT HOSPITAL’S WORK npHE Prime Minister’s statement -*•- on Saturday regarding the duties of hospital boards in the relief of unemployment, was replied to by Mr. M. J. Savacie, M.P., for Auckland West, in the Strand Theatre last evening. “The Prime Minister has said that it is the duty of hospital boards to relieve distress caused through unemployment,” he said. “While we admit that we have a duty to relieve cases of distress where we find them, we do not admit that unemployment relief is a job for the hospital board. This, we say, should be dealt with by a national scheme for the prevention of unemployment.”
