WAGE FIXING IN NEW ZEALAND
Edited by S. J. Callahan
$2
136 p.
One of the outstanding problems of present-day governments is the development of means which not only assure to the wage earner a fair share of national prosperity, but which promote economic growth, financial stability, and industrial peace. This demands of Government and its agencies a continuing reappraisal of its machinery for wage bargaining and of its wage-fixing policies. Series No. 14. (New Zealand Institute of Public Administration.)

BETWEEN GOVERNMENTS AND BANKS
By Dr Hawke
$7.50
244 p.
The Reserve Bank of New Zealand was established in 1933–34 but today’s institution bears little resemblance to the one that was originally constructed by the 1933 legislation. The author, with a combination of historical and economic skill, covers the story and makes an assessment of the Bank’s performance to date. A valuable contribution to New Zealand’s historical record.
