RELIEF WORKERS AND CAMPS.

(To tlie Editor.) Sir,—ln Friday’s issue of your paper there is a report of a meeting-of relief workers, where all unemployed camps were declared “black.” Now your paper has been supplied with, information, either purposely or otherwise, which is absolutely false, as none of the resolutions mentioned were carried. The relief workers themselves are to blame as there are about 600 men on relief and about 100 belong to the union, the result being that meetings of late have been the playground for a number of “red ants,” who have things all their own way. It is imperative that the workers at the present time should be organised, and conduct their meetings in a proper manner, as f e meeting referred to developed, into a “Keystone comedy,” As far as the writer is concerned, the “red ants” can declare the camps all the colours of the rainbow; he intends to give them a trial.—l am, etc., ..COMMON SENSE. New Plymouth, October 2, 1932. [Representatives of the press do not attend the meetings of relief workers. The report mentioned was supplied by Mr. R. Fulton.—Ed. Daily News.]
