HOLIDAY OBSERVANCE
CHRISTMAS & NEW YEAR PERIOD STATEMENT BY MINISTERS (By Telegraph—Press Association.) WELLINGTON, This Day. Messrs Sullivan and Webb, in a joint statement, announced today that the War Cabinet and the Government had decided that, subject to war exigencies, it is not intended to interfere with the observance of any holidays, statutory or annual, which are customarily given at Christmas and New Year, and to which workers are entitled. The Ministers said, that, while it was recognised that a break at the Christmas and New Year period would be beneficial from a health and probably from a productive viewpoint, they wished to secure the ' co-operation both of employers and workers so that while the prescribed holidays were observed, arrangements could be made for a return to work not later than January 4, to ensure that full production should be maintained in the New Year.
