Air Massey has arranged with the Overseas Settlement Committee to extend the migration plans, and has authorised the acceptance as farm labourers of men with little or no experience, provided the migration officials are satisfied that such men are physically capable of farm work. A limited number of this class will be sent in each ship, but they would not, Mr Massey 6aid, receive the same wages as experienced men. Air Massey also authorised tlie acceptance without nomination of boys of the public school class, about 20 to accompany each shipment, and arrangements are being made to accommodate these boys on experimental farms pending other suitable positions being found. Girls whose only experience in domestic training has been that of private homes, as well as those trained in orphanages or similar institutions, will also be accepted without nomination.
