DISPUTE OVER TRANSPORT '- (P.A.) MASTERTON, March 1. A "go-slow" policy was commenced by the employees of the Waingawa Freezing Works this morning following demands that transport be provided for them for. all shifts, and the police were called in to prevent. acts of intimidation. It is understood that; a meeting of the union and company" v officials last night agreed that work would continue as usual until the meeting to-day with the Transport Licensing Authority. Despite the decision of union officials, " go-slow " commenced this morning.
