BOARD’S PROCEDURE.
[TO the editor.! Sir —The report of the Grey Hospital Board’s meeting with the secretary of the Hotel Workers’ Union makes very amusing reading. The whole of the Board, according to your repoit, were very resentful of Mr Howarth s report to “Flashlight.’ But here the Board has surpassed itself. What exactly have they charged him withListening to complaints which he alleges were made to him by IS n^ eni_ bers of the domestic staff, and making a report about it to his Federation. Further on in the report it was stated by a Board member that there was now a committee of the Board taking evidence from all grades of the staff, and that whatever they liked to tell the committee would be sacrosanct, and they could not be questioned about any statements they liked’ to make. Surely a wonderful way ot getting at the truth about anything. But in Mr Howarth’s case he has to produce substantiation for all his assertions, which were based on the unanimous statements of IS domestics. Yours etc., LET THERE BE LIGHT.
