MORTGAGORS’ RELIEF
THE WELLINGTON COMMISSION GESTURE OF DISSATISFACTION. (I’eu United Press association.) PALMERSTON N., November 2. As a protest against the way the courts are administering the Mortgagors Relief Act, members of the Wellington Mortgagors’ Relief Commission have returned to their homes—in other words, they are on strike. At various times the work of the commission has been commended by judges,, but apparently the commissioners have not quite the same appreciation of the way in which the courts are administering the Act. It is rumoured that the commissioners think the courts are not as lenient as they might be and are’ not viewing the Act as the Legislature intended. The chairman of the commission will give no information for publication. He declared that the members had not resigned, but nevertheless the commissioners have returned to their homes while there is apparently plenty of work on hand. It is understood that the sitttings of the commission have also been cancelled.
