OUR HOUSE IN ORDER
Sir,— I am at a loss to understand where the newly-arrived immigrants from England are going after they reach the shores of New Zealand. Why do the authorities persist in defending the stoppage of the official quota when privately nominated migrants are still arriving? On the Hororata from Home recently there were 200 newcomers—nominated, not for jobs, but merely as dependants upon their nominators. If some of them were nominated for jobs, could those jobs not have been given to our own men instead of leaving New Zealanders out in the cold? And if they were not brought out to jobs, why were they brought here at all? Surely the Government’s duty is first to put its own house in order before inviting trouble from outside I OPEN MIND.
