RELIEF WORKERS.
"DEMONSTRATION" TIME.
NO WORK, NO PAY.
By Telegraph.—Parliamentary Reporter.) WELLINGTON, this day.
The Unemployment Board will not permit men who take part in demonstrations to make up any time that they lose through their attendance, nor will it pay the men for the lost time. This statement of policy was made by the deputy-chairman of the board, Mr. W. Bromley, in an interview last night. It was made clear by Mr. Bromley th..t the board had no desire to discourage t/lie expression of legitimate grievances through recognised channels, but members of the board did not think that it was in the public interest for the board to facilitate public demonstrations, the proceedings of which were, in any case, too often marked by an intemperateness which only alienated public sympathy from the unemployed.
