A ‘FAIR GO’ FOR THE MAORI City life is full of pitfalls for young Maori people. They are cut off from their ancient roots and it is a strange experience. And yet they must increasingly come to the city. I appeal to the Pakeha people to welcome them into your midst. Offer them board and lodging. Extend them the hospitality of your homes. Be friends with them. Help them to get the best jobs for which they are qualified. I appeal to the Pakeha people, in short, to see that the Maori people get a “fair go”. In time of war, they proved themselves worthy of it: and you will find in them a most rewarding response.
