SHEARING SHED RATES
Sir.—lf the 105-hour-a-week shearers’ cook decided to hold a stop-work meeting to argue things out with himself, and the 18 men on a 40-hour week walked in for dinner and there was none, who would be to blame? Why. the 18 men of course, for joining hands with the employer and allowing a member 'of their own union to work 65 hours a week for nothing. Majority rules, but it is not always right.—Yours, etc., 19 TO 1. July 31, 1950.
