WORK ON SATURDAY
(To the Editor.) Sir,—Having read in your columns the warning issued to tradesmen by the Minister of Labour in reference to Saturday morning work and particularly in regard to plumbers, I should like through your paper to ask the Minister, what steps he is going to take to stop employers working themselves on Saturdays. From my own personal experience I know a firm that has been making quite a good thing out of Saturday, charging customers double time rates. Candidly, I think, that if the Minister is sincere , in his statement that no work is to be done he will see to it that his edict is obeyed by both sides.—l am, etc., PLUMBER No. 1.
