TASMANIA TO LOAD MEAT
SHIP AT NEW PLYMOUTH TO-DAY. WATERSIDERS’ PLANS UNKNOWN. The New Zealand Shipping Company’s steamer Tasmania, which arrived at New Plymouth from Sydney yesterday, is to load frozen meat at New Plymouth for the United Kingdom, her allotment being 8000 freight carcases. The meat is from the Waitara and Patea freezing works, but since the freezing workers’ strike no meat from those works has been, loaded by the watersiders at New Plymouth. A call for labour will be made in the usual manner at 8 o’clock this morning.
Though an agreement has been reached between the employers and the watersiders concerning the new rates of wages and conditions of work this does not apply to the question of handling meat. No indication was given by the New Plymouth Wr terside Workers’ Unioa last night whether the men would work the meat or not to-day.
