WATERSIDE LABOUR
CONFERENCE CONTINUES. ! It is improbable that any decisive stage in the conference between tho Federated Watcrsido Workers' Unions and tho employors of wharf labour will bo reached for a day or two at least. For tho present tho employers' cargo oxperts are conferring with the union delegates about tho details of tho claims which tho unions make, and when this part of tho conference is over each side will know something more of tho other's case. Most important of tho considerations involved arc those of financo, and these must of course bo reserved for decision by the heads of tho shipping companies concerned 1 . After the experts and the -union, delegates have discussed the claims in detail the issues ought to be clearly defined, and the parties will be in a position to negotiate with a good understanding of what they are discussing.
