BLESSING OF CHILDREN.
BACHELOR MINISTER’S VIEW. YOUNG MEN TO BE GIVEN CHANCE. (By Telegraph.—Press Association.) CHRISTCHURCH, Tuesday. As a bachelor the Hon. P. C. Webb. Minister of Mines, gave his view of married life when replying to a deputalion of unemployed men at Brighton yesterday afternoon. ‘“There is no comfort or consolation in life to compare with little children,” he remarked after declaring that it was an outrage upon civilisation that young men were denied the opportunity of living the life that nature intended them to live. The Government, he said, would leave no stone unturned in its efforts to make it possible for every man in New Zealand to have tlie home that he wanted. ”1 might have been married myself,” he added, “but I did most of my lighting behind prison bars and it was better that 1 should do that us a single man.”
