HOURS OF SHOPPING.
AN AUCKLAND PROBLEM
(Per Press Association.) AUCKLAND, this day
Mention was made in. the Arbitration Court to-day of the desire on the part of Auckland employers to revert to 8.30 on the late shopping night, instead of 9 in the award, and to- close at 12.30 on •Saturday.
Mr. Justice Herdman said the Court was absolutely unable to alter the award without the consent of both parties. Mr. Crosby, secretary of the Employees’ Federation, said the matter had been referred to the unions throughout the- Dominion. They were well satisfied with the award as. it stands. He thought the unions would be ill advised to agree to- the proposed alteration, having- achieved the curtailment of the late night after twelve years’ fighting. Argument is proceeding.
