NO EXEMPTION
WAGES INCREASE
(By Telegraph—^Press Association.)
AUCKLAND, .September 30.
An application 'from employers bound by the storemen and packers award for exemption from the general order of the Court of Arbitration for a s;per cent. :increase in wages was refused by Mr. Justice Tyndall in a judgment. The grounds stated in the application were, that the award had granted: substantial increases in wages and that there had been nothing to justify any further increase since it was made. I "The first ground is virtually an [appeal against'the Court's recent de-: cision following upon the hearing of; the storemen and packers' dispute:" the (judgment states. "If an order were now made to exclude them from the operation of the general order, "the Court's decision would be in effect, annulled."
