CARPENTERS’ GO-SLOW
“MEN STANDING FIRM ”
PUBLIC .MEETING AT AUCKLAND
(P.A.) AUCKLAND, February 27. The case for the carpenters’ goslow action against the builders was stated at a public meeting attended by about 700 men and women in Myers Park this, afternoon. The national secretary of the Carpenters’ Union (Mr R. Stanley) said there were three possible solutions to the deadlock which occurred after the dismissal of Auckland carpenters. The Government coyld set up a tribunal, and if that were done, the carpenters would call off their go-slow action provided the master builders called off their “lock-out.” Secorid, the Government could take action against the carpenters; and third, another conference could be held between the carpenters and the employers. Mr Stanley said the Auckland carpenters were standing firm. The. executive of the Bricklayers’ Union has decided to make no recommendation to union members about the carpenters’ dispute.
