RATIONED MEATS

AUCKLAND WATERS!DERS’ DEMAND. P.A. AUCKLAND, February 14. ‘‘The position is unchanged,” said Mr H. Barnes, President of the Auckland Waterside Workers’ Union, when asked if workers who have been assigned to unload the sugar cargo at Chelsea from the ‘‘Dominion Park”, would work overtime. For the past month the men have refused to work from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. at Chelsea, because no rationed meats were in eluded in their evening meat. In view of the large amount of sugar for Chelsea, it is probable that, the loss of three hours’ work nightly will mean a delay of practically a week in the completion of discharge.
