“Capable and Efficient Officers.”

“Capable and Efficient Officers.”

In the course of a statement to the Press concerning the order of reference of the Railway Commission, which has been set up by the Government to investigate railway matters in New Zealand, the Prime Minister (Hon. G. W. Forbes) pays the following tribute to the responsible officers of the Service:—

“I recognise that the men who are responsible for running the railways are capable and efficient officers, and that they are actuated by a keen desire to get the best possible results from the service, both from a financial and a public utility point of view. They are not responsible for many of the points of policy, and it is in these directions that the Government feels that there is need for investigation.”
