“Should House Immigrant Families"
There were almost as many British families trying to return to'England ns there wore seeking berths to New Zealand, said the Mayor of Auckland, Mr. .1. A. C. A Hum, when lie welcomed delegates to the annual conference of Ihe New Zealand Motor Body Builders’ Industrial Union of Employers. The present policy, which encouraged only single immigrants to come to New Zealand. was unsatisfactory. However, there was no accommodation for families. “1 am convinced that the remedy is to brine out. units of families, from grandfather to grandson, and house them." said Mr. Allum. “We should not be conservative about it. as I believe we are being in this country.”
