SHOP AND OFFICES ACT.
FURTHER PROTESTS. (Peii United Piiess Association.) CHRISTCHUBCH, Februrry 9 'Die Canterbury Employers' Association lias decided to join with the Otago and other centres in protesting against section 13 of the Shops and O/lices Act, reuuring that the registration of each rlice of business be in the name of one person as the occupier, irrespective of the magnitude of the business or the number uf branches of trade carried on in the establishment, or the number of partners or principals. One effect is that in the case
of two partners one is deemed to be only a shop assistant, and is to be treated as
such under the ■supervision of the Inepec'
tor of Factories. It is contended that
the act in this respect is absurd and unworkable'.
