BOYS FOR FARMS
APPRENTICESHIP CONTESTS LABOUR MINISTER’S CIRCULAR Press Association WELLINGTON, To-day. The Minister of Labour, the Hon. W. A. Veitch. is circularising farmers through the Farmers’ Union throughout the Dominion, with regard to the employment of boys leaving school. He mentions that employers in the towns are doing their bit through apprenticeships, and as other occupation* depend largely oil the export of farm produce, for which the market may be regarded as unlimited, he asks farmers to follow suit. Arrangements have been made by which the New Zealand Farmers’ Union will co-operate with the Labour Department. The Farmers’ Union is endeavouring to secure employers for boys desiring employment on farms, who will be enrolled by the Labour Department. The attention of farmers is drawn to the facilities for taking boys under apprenticeship contracts, provided by the Master and Apprentice Act, 1920.
