FRUIT OF ARBITRATION
“MORE TROUBLE THAN BEFORE.”. MEN’S DEMANDS “IDIOTIC.” By TelegTaph. —Press Assn. — Copyright, MELBOURNE, March 21. Mr Appleton, chairman of directors, at the annual meeting of the Huddart, Parker Company, stated that the position after 20 years of conciliation and arbitration, was that there were more strikes, more industrial trouble, and a great distrust which previously did not exist between employer and employee. His latest letter from England stated that the men seem to have lost their heads entirely. Demands were unreasonable, in fact, idiotic. The men did not seem to wish to work at all, even on their own terms, and all sorts of tales were told of extreme action and ridiculous behaviour by crews at sea.
