SCHOOL UNIFORMS: RECOMMENDATION TO GOVERNMENT
WELLINGTON, This Day (P.A.).— The Government is to be asked to consider the suggestion that where school uniforms are-compulsory they should be purchased from the manufacturers for sale to parents at cost price. A remit to this effect was adopted at today’s conference of the New Zealand Labour Party. The conference decided to recommend to the Government for consideration a remit that a grant should be made to each new school to meet the initial establishment expenses, although it was explained that such a system was already in practice. A proposal for the establishment by the Government of a trade union college was referred to the national executive after it was explained that Ruskin College, in Great Britain, was established by the trade union movement and not by the Government.
