CONFERENCE ISSUE.
ATTITUDE OF MINE OWNERS. LABOUR, EXECUTIVE REPLY. (By Telegraph.—Press Association.) WELLINGTON, this day. Replying to Mr. T. O. Bishop's denial that the owners had refused to confer with the miners about the new proposals, the national executive of the New Zealand Labour party states that there is apparently some conflict between the mine owners themselves and Mr. Bishop.
The main point of the Labour party's statement, it ie pointed out, was that a conference should be held to diecuss all problems without entering into a controversy as to the question of rationing work, minimum wages and balloting to determine w7io is to stand down. The Labour party's point was that a conference should' be held at once and that every question relative to employment in the mining industry ehould be the subject of discussion and negotiation at the'conference. The Labour party urged that in the public interest either the Government or mine ownere should call an unconditional conference at once.
