Unemployment Distress
Sir—May I trespass upon your space ■to sav that the scheme suggested by your correspondent, Mary Ilichmond.-although quite good, could be improved upon. 1 suggest that some reliable lady be appointed to each district in Wellington, to make inquiries into each application for relief, and report to headquarters as to tho relief applied for and its merits for instance, a party living in Lyall Bay applies to the lady in charge there, and she will at once visit the house and see for herself what is required, and then report. This would save a long queue waiting their turn at the central bureau after a long journey to town, and also would be a guarantee if the case was deserving or not. —I am, etc., INQUIRE BTRST. > WelUMtv®.
