80 Queensland Girls Hired For Hotels
(N.Z. Press Association-Copyright)
BRISBANE, February 5.
About 80 Queensland girls have been recruited to work as hotel staff in New Zealand as the result of a week-long campaign.
Any more suitable girls who applied could expect to find employment, said Mrs A. L. Beck, who has been conducting a campaign in Brisbone for the Hotel Association of New Zealand.
“We hope to keep up a continual flow of girls to New Zealand,” Mrs Beck said. “Some of them will be replacements for girls who marry over there, or for those whose term of employment is up and wish to return to Australia.” Mrs Beck said the campaign was confined to Queensland because its girls were the most suitable.
“Queensland and New Zealand seem to have about the same tempo of life and Queensland girls adapt to conditions over there very well,” she said.
