SHEARING CONTRACTS
Sir,—if a shearer undertakes the contract of a run of sheds and states the day of starting, and before such date begins entirely different work and fails to notify the farmers, thereby leaving them without shearers, what is the position? Is the Shearers’, Union solely for the shearers’ protection and are its rules to be followed only by the farmers and disregarded at will by the shearers?— Yours, etc., HOGGET. November 4, 1942. [This letter was referred to the Shearers’ Union, but no reply has been received.—Ed., ‘‘The Press,”]
