CTo the Editor.) I jjjr,—in your report oi the plumbers' ' dispute betore the Council of Coneiliai uou on the -jyth inst., 1 Km reported to j have stated the following:— J " Mr. Clark said it was not right for a I man after a day's work, being sent at ! night to a job in the country, and not i gel paid for time when travelling. He ; also claimed the right of a n em" j i plover to be able to send a man at the Union rate of wages to do work for a xana who iiad purchased the mater'-aL iie agreed that 32/6 was a. fair wage for an apprentice at the end oi his term, but objected to an increase to 40/ per week. wim-h was only about IS/ below a. journeyman's pay. He also objected to giving apprentices two half days a week. Phrmbexs could go to the technical school in the evening."' This is untrue.
