In appealing for goodwill in business and industry, the Minister of Labour (the Hon P. C. Webb) said at a luncheon of the Auckland Junior Chamber of Commerce that a greater effort was needed to bring the spirit and atmosphere of the playing field into the factories and workaday activities of the nation. “If we succeed in this direction” he added, “we shall be able to hand down to our children a legacy of which both we and they will be proud, and it will be an example to them in shaping their own course.” New Zealand, like every other country in the world, was, he declared, grappling with the problems of economic security, and upon their solution depended economic peace, which was the foundation of world peace. By removing the causes of internal economic strife, each country could make a contribution towards a happier world.
