TAKEN TO TASK.
UNEMPLOYMENT BOARD Electric Telegraph—Press Association WELLINGTON. This Day. In a statement to-day , Mr McLaughlin, National Secretary, for the National I nion of Unemployed, complains of the Unemployment Board compelling many committees to resign owing to lack of co-operation and says it seems determined to pur the local committees out of business and vest the control n the- hands of the Commissioner of Unemployment in Wellington. In 1931, lie says. Parliament clearly saw that four men largely domiciled in Well ingtoii could not possibv administer the unemplorniejit. fund according to the varying needs and conditions of every area without tin* co-operation of districtcoin mittees and he says the solution ton the. present trouble lies in a complete change of policy by the Board and this can best be secured by unemployment committees functioning as intended by t'lie legislation 'which established them.
