DOMESTICS FOR NEW ZEALAND
READY SUPPLY AVAILABLE BRITISH ORGANISATION COV ED FIND 200 IN 12 MONTHS. [ Per Pres» As«csintion.l AUCKLAND, Feb. 26. The readiness of her organisation to arrange for the despatch of domestics to New Zealand was mentioned on Saturday by Miss E. M. Thompson, C.8.E., chairwoman of the Society for Overseas Settlement of British Women, who arrived at Auckland by the Mataroa to spend a short time in New Zealand before going to Australia to discuss immigration of English girls into the Commonwealth. If there was a shortage of domestics in New Zealand, said Miss Thompson, and satisfactory arrangements could be made for their reception and employment, her society would be pleased to see what relief it could afford. Although it would necessarilj depend upon a number of circumstances and conditions, at a guess she would say she could supply the Dominion with 200 girls in 12 months.
