P. AND T. RESOLUTION
The following resolution was passed by a largely attended general meeting of tho Wellington section of the Post and Telegraph Employees' Association, held in the Farmers' Institute Hall last evening:-— "That this meeting of tho Post and Telegraph ofiiecrs stationed in Wellington, while' recognising that the country is passing through an unfavourable period, is firmly of the opinion that a 10 per cent, reduction in salaries, particularly of those who are still suffering from the. reductions made in 1921, is grossly unjust. This meeting considers that if the Civil servant is required to contribute towards the deficit, then every person in the country should do so also; and that merchants and business houses and distributors of all articles should be compelled by Act of Parliament to reduce prices, as also should professional men in all walks of life and proprietors of newspapers."
