SLAUGHTERMAN WALK CUT
Per Press Association. Christchurch, May 3
The slaughtermen at the New Zealand Refrigerating Company's Islington Works ceased work tuis morning. The trouble is due to the men refusing to place identification tickets on the shej*p killed and dressed by them. The management insisted on ihis duty being oarried out, and the butchers, numbering between 40 and 50, walked off the boards.
There was trouble at other vrorkfl this morning over the same master, but it was amicably settled, and work was carried on. The use of the identification tags has been in abeyance during the period of the commandeer, and only lately has it been reverted to.
