DAIRY WORKERS
AWAKD AS TO HOLIDAYS.
(By Telegraph.—Press Association.) AUCKLAND, 22nd November. Application was made to the Arbitration Court this morning for an amendment of the cheese and butter factory employees' award. The employers' representative contended that tliero was a defect in the clause relating to holidays. Three weeks' holiday on full pay was favoured on a seven days' week, but not where tho working week was six days. He urged the delotion of tho clause and tho substitution of two clauses which had boon in the previous award. Neither party had asked for a now clause. Tho . employees' representative suggested that the companies which wanted a seven days' week now wanted six days, and at the same time to penalise tho men to the extent of three weeks' holiday on full pay. Mr. Justice Frazcr, in announcing that decision would be reserved, said that if there was a bona fide mistake in the award it could be amended by consent of both parties.
