FACTORIES ACT.
INTERPRETATIONS AT AUCK-
LAND,
Per Press Association.
AUCKLAND, Sept. 17. Maintaining that the provisions of the Factory Act apply to them, quarry workers who are members of the union have decided to refuse Saturday work from next Saturday. The decision was reached at a meeting last night. About 150 men are involved. The secretary (Mr T. Stanley) said to-day that the decision was reached after the union had received “unsatisfactory and conflicting statements from Hon. H. T. Armstrong and the Labour Department at Auckland on the interpretation of the Factories Act.”
