FARM LABOUR
CONTINUED SHORTAGE
"In view of the continued shortage of labour on farms we urge the Government to consider the desirability of meeting the situation by some modification of public works policy." This resolution was adopted by the New Zealand Primary and Ancillary Industries Producers' Council at a meeting in Wellington yesterday. Fourteen delegates attended and Mr. W. J. Poison, M.P.. presided.
Concerning the suggestion that a meeting should be held between employers and employees to consider the provisions of the recent drivers' award, it was decided that a protest should be made "objecting most strongly to any suggestion of subsequent conferences between the parties following the publication of an award of the Arbitration Court."
