EXEMPTION REFUSED. STOREMEN AND PACKERS (Per Press Association). AUCKLAND, September 30.. An application from employers bound by the storemen’s and packers’ award for exemption from the general order of the Court of Arbitration for a 5 per cent increase int wages was refused by the Court. Tho grounds stated in the application were that tl]e award granted substantial increases in wages, and that there had been nothing to justify any further increase since it was made.
“The first ground is virtually an appeal against the Court’s recent- decision following upon, the hearing of the storemen’s and, packers’ dispute,” the judgment states. “If,, an order were' now made to exclude them from, the operation -of the general order, the Court’s previous decision? would! be in effect annulled.” t»
