FREEZING WORKS DISPUTE
NO SETTLEMENT YET. NEGOTIATIONS PROCEEDING. By Telegraph P»ress Association. WELLINGTON. November 1. Although a conference lasting several hours was held in Wellington yesterday between representatives of the employers and employees in the freezing workers dispute, no settlement was reached. It is understood that although no move has so far been made, another attempt to bring the parties together will be, made shortly. It was recently suggested to the .Hon. A. Hamilton, from an outside source that he should endeavour to bring both sides together at a more or less informal conference to discuss the whole question, and to attempt to reach a settlement. The Minister arranged for the holding of a conference, and representatives of both sides came to Wellington yesterday from all over New Zealand. Both sides met without prejudice to the cases of either party, and although the points at issue were gone into very carefully, it was found impossible to reach a basis of settlement. It is understood that failure to reach an agreement at present will not prevent further discussions, as the feeling on both sides is stated to be good. Both the employers’ and worker’s representatives remained in Wellington last night.
