ARBITRATION COURT
TYPOGRAPHICAL DISPUTE.
WELLINGTON, November 28. The application by the New Zealand Typographical Union for <he amendment of an award was before the Arbitration Court again to-day. At the conclusion of the evidence the court reserved its decision. Mr Justice Stringer said the court might find
itself limbed to giving such increase in wages as was warranted by the increase in the cost of living, as disclosed by the last statistics furnished by the Government Statistician. If the court came to that conclusion there would be no reason for delaying the decision to permit evidence being heard in other centres. If it was thought that the other matters brought forward should be considered, the evidence of the other districts would have to be heard, as it was a dominion award.
