National Aspects of the Railways Vital Links with the Public NEW ZEALAND’S railways are so intimately merged in the whole economic and social structure of the Dominion that any serious setback to this great enterprise must react against the national welfare. Railway employees now number about IS,OOO, of whom thousands are married men with families. The payment of wages amounts to about £4-millions a year, and the use of this money figures importantly in the livings of manufacturers, merchants, shopkeepers and others. The Department's expenditure on stores in a year runs to about £2-mil!ions, much of which is used in the purchase of articles made in New Zealand. The more New Zealanders use their own railways for the transport of themselves or their goods, the more they help their country to recover its prosperity. Wellington, 1 3th April, 1932.
