DEVELOPMENT LEAGUE Sir, —Do you consider the aim of the Development League is being" carried out in employing a married woman, whose husband is in constant employment as clerk, when daily, firms arc remarking on the applications by boys and girls well educated, for situations which they reluctantly have to turn away. Surely these are the coming developers of the town. Why make them seek elsewhere for employment. While I am writing, could not our Labour Mayor see that when his Council were employing a temporary clerk she could have been a single one or one of his unemployed. CURIOUS It is presumed that the Development League and the City Council make qualification the first consideration for filling a position. • So long as this is done, no exception can be taken to the appointment of any person.— “ Chronicle.”
