CHEAP SYMPATHY
WITH PUBLIC SERVANTS. IN THEIR WAGE CUT. (Per Press Association). GISBORNE, March 16. Containing a protest against any further wage cuts, and seeking the Chamber’s aid in opposing such cuts, a letter from the Gisborne Section of the Public Service Association, was received at to-day’s meeting of the Gisborne Chamber of Commerce. The letter contended that the cuts would have a widespread and disastrous effect on business generally and any .further reduction to civil servants would mean that any sum up to two million sterling would be withdrawn from circulation. The letter urged that a protest to the Government is essential in the interest of all engaged in business. The members of the Chamber expressed sympathy with the public servants, but decided that the matter was outside the province of the Chamber, some of the speakers expressing the opinion that either wages or men had to- bo cut down.
