THE SHIPPING TROUBLE
A FUTILE CONFERENCE
STRIKE TO CONTINUE
(United Press Association.) Received January 14, 1.20 a.m. MELBOURNE, Jan. 13
A conference of the shipowners with the marine engineers, with a view to a settlement of the engineers' strike, proved futile. The Shipping Controller informed Mr Hughes that the engineers declined to compromise their original demands. Mr Hughes then spent two hours in a talk with a member of the executive, but efforts to reach an agreement failed. The representatives leave for their homes to-night, and the strike continues.
