DEMAND FOR LABOUR SAID TO BE GRADUALLY EASING
(P.A.) WELLINGTON, This Day. “There are signs that the tide is beginning to turn,” said the president of the New Zealand Employers’ Federation, Mr Percy Coyle, addressing today’s annual meeting of the organisation in Wellington. The demand for Labour, he said, was gradually easing. “In some instances,” he added, “controls have been removed in whole or in part. The aim of all employers should be to advocate the revocation of all the war-time legislation which has been carried into the peace.” Mr Coyle said the enormous increase in Government costs demanded that every organisation should state a case on the urgent need for Government economy. Unless the employer threw his energies into organised resistance he would be locked between high taxes and rising living costs.
