SIX DAY WEEK.
HOTEL TARIFF RAISED. BY ONE AND SIXPENCE A DAY. The -new. agreement, which provides for a six-day week for hotel workers, comes into force on May 11. On the same day a new hotel tariff will come into force. It is not proposed to raise the price of '' long beers'' or Highland Dew, but the tariff will call for a revision of the bed, breakfast, lunch, and dinner charges. The first-class hotels will raise the tariff by 1/6 per day, and other hotels will raise it 1/- per day. The proprietors of hotels consider that they will be put to extra expense by the change in conditions, and that the method they are adopting is quite a reasonable way of recouping the extra expenditure.
