RETURNED SOLDIERS

OUT OF WORK IN AUCKLAND. Per-Press Association. AUCKLAND, August 1. .Many returned soldiers in Auckland are seeking work. At present there are 33G names on the register of tho employment bureau conducted by the Patriotic Association, and 148 on the register of the Repatriation Board.

The worst feature of the position is I hat tin- idle men are cither unskilled or capable of only light iWorJi.
