By Telegraph—Press Association.
CIVIL SERVANTS' THANKS
Dunedin, Last Night. "I think that the majority of our members feel gratified that the Government has recognised the justice of their claims for some assistance in meeting the increased cost of living," said Mr. E. C. J. Foot, president of the ' Otago section of the Public Service Association, when commenting to-day on an announcement by the Minister of Finance, the Hon. W. Nash, of increases in civil servants' salaries. It had been felt for a long time in the service, Mr.' Foot said, that some increase was due to the lower paid workers who were definitely in need of assistance, particularly when they were married. It was especially satisfying to see that section receive an increase in wages but members of the association on the whole were appreciative of what the Government had done for them.
