CHRISTCHURCH TRAMWAYMEN
Status of Unionists By Telegraph—Press Association. CHRISTCHURCH, Dec. 20. The new Tramway Board, which consists almost wholly of Labour members, wilt receive a recommendation at its next meeting from the works committee that members of the Tramways Union who were re-engaged after the strike in May, 1932, be restored to the seniority they lost on re-engagement. If the recommendation is adopted it will mean that several men now serving as conductors will be made motormen and, in consequence, a corresponding number of motormen will be reduced to be conductors. It is stated, however, that men reduced in status will not suffer a reduction in pay.
