RELIEF WORKERS’ DISPUTE
STRIKE STILL UNSETTLED (Per United Press Association.) NAPIER, June. 30. The strike position at Napier and Hastings remains unaltered, the most important development to-day being the meelyng of the Hawke’s Bay Provincial Council and the National Union of Unemployed, which afterwards issued the following statement: — 1 “Every effort is now being made by the Provincial Council to effect a reasonable settlement, and it is still hoped that a national strike will be averted. A telegram has been received from Wellington stating that national action has been decided upon. and we have also received communications from many relief workers’ organisations throughout the Dominion assuring us of their support. The position has been greatly improved, and already certain concessions have been offered as a result of the conference of local bodies. The Hawke’s Bay County Council has made certain offers which contain features to which the Provincial Council cannot agree. A further conference of local bodies’ representatives has been arranged by the Mayor of Napier, and through that conference we have submitted our reply to the County Council.”
