OUT OF WORK.
RETURNED SOLDIERS TN
AUCKLAND.
(By Telegraph —Press Association.) AUCKLAND, Wednesday.
A. groat deal of unemployment among returned soldiers exists in the Auckland district. The Repatriation Board has on its bocks a total of 123 men seeking work, and: the Patriotic Association "s employment bureau has a total of .152 men out of work. A few of the same names appear on both registers, but the number in need of work can safely be set down at from 200 to 250. Unfortunately, the majority of those out of work are men who, by reason of their injuries, cannot accept anything but light employment. Some are tradesmen, but they cannot return to their old occupations on account of their disabilities, and others aro men who formerly followed unskilled occupations.
