ANTI-TIPPING LAW WAS NOT EFFECTIVE
JUDGE ADMITS HE HAS BEEN GUILTY OF BREACH. (Special to the “Star.”) AUCKLAND, August 4. When Mr E. Kennedy, general secretary of the Cooks and Stewards’ Federation, drew the Arbitration Court's attention to an award made several years ago Mr Justice Frazer asked whether that was not the famous time when tips “ went west.” Mr Kennedy said that in 1015 Mr Justice Stringer had made tipping illegal, and had substituted an increase in wages. “ The anti-tipping clause was no more effective than the anti-shouting law,” said Mr T. O. Bishop, general secretary of the Employers’ Federation. “ I am afraid I have been guilty of breaking it myself,” said his Honor. Mr Bishop: They have both the rise and the tips now.
