WHARFMEN ADAMANT
CALLS FOR LABOUR IGNORED PORT KEMBLA DISPUTE United Press Association—By Electric Telegraph—Copyright (Received December 9, 10.30 pjn.) SYDNEY, December 9. The waterside dispute was taken a further stage to-day when local wharfmen refused to take out licenses and also ignored calls for labour for the steamers Dalfram and Ellaroo. The men are picketing the wharves, but there is no sign of disorder. There is no immediate likelihood of the dispute spreading to the Sydney wharves, but the fact that no labour is offering at Port Kembla will greatly inconvenience local steel works and south coast collieries.
