WORK FOR ALL
STATEMENT BY MINISTER “MORE JOBS THAN MEN” “Arrangements have been made for the employment of every able-bodied man in the Wairarapa,” stated the Hon P. C. Webb, Minister of Employment, in an interview on Saturday night. The men, he added, would be employed on essential works, partly by local bodies and partly by the Public Works Department. The whole of the Taranaki, Manawatu, Hawke’s Bay, Bay of Plenty, Waikato and Auckland distrists would be treated the same as the Wairarapa. "I am satisfied," observed Mr Webb, “that in two weeks from now, Mr Armstrong, Minister of Labour, will be able to announce that there are more jobs available than men offering.”
