Chimney-fall stops killing
PA Invercargill Killing resumed at the Alliance Freezing Company (Southland), Ltd, Lorneville plant yesterday, but the plant at Ocean Beach stayed closed. The Ocean Beach problem this time was not industrial but damage caused by an^v- chimney blown over by gale-force winds on bun-
day which prevented the resumption of normal work. The two top sections of the 39m high chimney fell on a meat meal store and smashed a hole in a pas-sage-way to the freezers. Some repairs were made yesterday and killing was expected to resume this • The day was not profit-
less for the Ocean Beach meat workers who turned up for work after their fourweek strike. Under the Meat Workers’ Union award, they receive a “call-out” payment for four hours work. The dispute was over who should service the lamb cutting department. Lorneville workers Jiad been on strike in support of Ocean Beach.
