DULL TIMES
CAPACITY TO RECOVER. LORD BLEDISLOE OPTIMISTIC. Per Press Association. AUCKLAND. April 2. Faith in the capacity of New Zealand to recover rapidly from the dull times now being experienced was expressed by Lord Bledisloe at the civic reception last evening. His Excellency referred to the wave of unemployment affecting the Dominion, and said that he did so because he wished to point out that unemployment was being experienced throughout the world. He believed that New Zealand possessed certain factors which would enable it to pa:-s through that unhappy period more rapidly than most, if not all, other countries which were suffering. Whatever governmental action might be taken he thought it behoved all to do whatever lay in their power to mitigate unemployment. . He was not going to be bold enough to make suggestions as to how this could be done, but if we were going to be fine Imperialists a spirit pi cooperation must actuate all we did.
