The frequency of stop-work meertings at the coal mines, which has had a serious effeot on the output of coal, is not showing any signs of abatement. The latest instance occurred at the Rotowaru mine, which was rendered idle owing to the miners holding a meeting from 8 a.m. to 10 a.m. While the meeting was in progress the truckers left the mine, and when the miners returned they were unable to resume. The stoppage meant the loss of "a day's output of 350 tons of coal.
