"Articles referring to 'starving tourists' in New Zealand appear in European journals, and must do this country injury," stated Mr. J. J. W. Pollard in a report to the South Island Travel Association. "In some centres where the transport service brings the traveller to his destination after the meal hour there is a steady cause of irritation. Difficulties are caused bv the combination of Factories Acts and the too-rigid hours restrictions in awards. It has been shown that in some hostels controlled bv the Tourist Department, flexibility iii the operation of the hours limitations is permitted. Privately-owned accommodation houses should be on the same basis since the Governmentmanaged places have found this flexibility necessary. Flexibility is especially necessary in remote regions and would be welcomed by employees as well as by employers."
