HELP FOR UNEMPLOYED
RELIEF WORKS IN NORTH From Our Own Correspondent WHAN GAREI, Today. Tho first relief work in the Wliangarei district commenced today. Thirty men were taken to Matapouri, where the work of widening and improving grades on the Marua-Mata-pouri road will be performed. The urgency of this work was represented to the Hon. E. A. Ransom, Minister of Public Works, when he visited this locality. It is mostly construction work and eminently suited for relief works.
This road, when improved, will open up vast grazing lands and bays on the coast.
There is still a good deal of unemployment in Whangarei, but this work has gone a long way to relieve the position.
