CIVIL SERVANTS
PROTESTS AGAINST FURTHER CUTS
PROPAGANDA DEPRECATED.
(Per United Press Association),
Auckland, December 18.
A largely attended meeting of the P. and T. Employees’ Association carried a resolution protesting against the propaganda which, it is alleged, is being broadcast by Chambers of Commerce having for its object an attack on the salaries and conditions of Civil Servants. The resolution said the civil servants were carrying more than a fair share of the country’s burden and any further attempts to reduce their living standards would be resisted to the utmost. The association's headquarters are to be asked to obtain a Government assurance that there will be no more cuts, rationing, or retrenchment, and failing a satisfactory reply mass meetings of civil servants throughout the Dominion are to be arranged.
