DOMINION IRON TRADES.
ENCOURAGEMENT WANTED. AUCKLAND, April A strong plea was made at to-day's luncheon of the Ironmasters' Conference by several speakers for legislative support for local industries, particularly tha iron industry, in the way of a slight alteration in the Customs tariff and labour laws, as there were, it was said, unmistakable signs that the industry from one end ot the country to the othe* was languishing for want of practical encouragement. Attention was also drawn, to the large number of New Zea-land-trained boys who annually left the country to seek appointments in various parts of the world, simply because they could not find suitable employment in the Dominion.
