EMPLOYMENT PROMOTION
PASSING OF THE BILL
A PROTRACTED DISCUSSION
Practically the whole of yesterday's and last evening's sitting of the House of Representatives was devoted to' the continuance of the debate on the Employment Promotion Bill, which, after a protracted third-reading discussion, was passed about 10 p.m. The debate was unwittingly prolonged by the Minister. of Labour (the Hon. H. T. Armstrong) who, at the conclusion of: the Committee stage, replied to some points that had been made and unintentionally" reopened up almost the whole field of unemployment. The discussion, lengthy though it was, did not produce anything new or original in the way of argument. One of its most illuminating features was the number of ways there are of saying the same thing.
