UNEMPLOYED.
(To the Editor)., Sir, —While reading your leading article of the 20th instant I noticed, you mentioned that the Unemployment Board lias something like £4,000,000 a year to spend and the popular feeling is that something useful, spectacular
or productive should: be done ■with, the money. Well, Mr Editor, 1 quite agree with you in that respect-. 1 think Mr Bromley mentioned about machinery being installed and the impossibility of finding work. Now, Mr Editor, does that not sound ridiculous in this young, undeveloped country? What about the roads. I class them as productive and there is work for many thousands more taking off comers, forming and improving roads and bridges for the safety of the travelling public.—l am, etc., ROADWAY.
