CANTERBURY COLLEGE SALARIES.
REDUCTION OF 10 PER CENT. Following instructions from the Department of Education, the Canterbury College Board of Governors has reduced the salaries of the whole staff of Canterbury College, of the Public Library, and of the Wheat Research Institute, by 10 per cent. It is understood "that the instructions were received at the last meeting of the Board, ami the cut was put into effect on the first following payday, last Wednesday, the employees affected receiving no warning of the change. As the Government provides by far the greater part of the University's finances, it is in si position to dictate the salaries, but it is thought that it may be necessary to enquire into the legal position created by the fact that some of the college's funds are obtained from other sources. Protests mav also bo lodged ngainst tho reduction on general grounds as well as on the ground that notice should have been given to the employees concerned.
