SYDNEY “SUN.”
DISPUTE PREVENTS PUBLICATION OF PAPER (Rec. 11.35 a.m.) SYDNEY, This Day. Mr Justice Webb, of the Industrie Commission, has called a compulsory conference of parties involved in the dispute between the management and 500 members of the mechanical staff of the “ Sun ” newspaper. The men held a stop-work meeting yesterday afternoon and asked that the management grant their demands on two domestic issues. Claiming that the management’s reply was unsatisfactory, they walked off the job and the “ Sun ” did not publish after the first edition. The opposition paper, the “ Daily Mirror,” is appearing with the label, “Emergency edition of * Sunday Daily Mirror,’ published during non-publi-cation of ‘Sydney Daily Sun’.” Members of the Printing Industry Employees’ Union of Australia demand that men employed as reel storemen and now paid under the storemen and packers’ award should be paid union rates, and that six men at present absent from work and being paid workers’ compensation should iustead be paid in full.
