TEMPORARY CIVIL SERVANTS
"PROTECTING THEIR INTERESTS/'
"There is no reason why a body of workers should not protect their own interests and study their future welfare," said a prominent civil servant to a "Times" reporter yesterday, ''and the recently-formed association by the temporary civil servants of New Zealand hopes to achieve this objective. As pointed out at the recent meeting, conditions, as compared with the_ permanent members, are very 'one sided.' and it is with the intention of equalising matters that the association will meet to-night." Mr Harold E. Elliott, the secretary, has been very active, likewiso the committee. The business will consist of the appointment of a deputation to Parliament, discussion regarding present salaries, concessions, and conditions generally, determination of the association's platform, and the secretary's progress report to date. It is hoped a large and representative gathering will be present.
