§ Mr. Jacksonasked the Minister of Agriculture if he will instruct war agricultural executive committees to give employment to qualified members of the W.L.A. in preference to Italian prisoners.
Mr. HudsonAs there is ample employment for all qualified members of the W.L.A. and Italian prisoners who are available to War Agricultural Executive Committees, the question of preference does not arise. As a general rule, however, prisoners are employed on work of the heavier types and not on work which is suitable for women.
