THE COST OF LIVING.
RELATION TO WAGES. (Per Press Association.) AUCKLAND, August 2. A prediction that further demands for wages increases to meet the lise in living costs were likely in the coming year, is contained in the annual report of the Auckland Provincial Employers’ Association. It is also stated that an attempt to bring all industry more or less under beaurocratic control is possible. “The past year has been an exceptionally harassing one, through the confusion arising from the hasty industrial legislation in 193 G,” states the report. “Many employers have been faced with unexpectedly heavy payments for back wages, and there has been dissatisfaction among the workers, strikes and unrest, for which the past year holds an unenviable record. This year employers are likely to be faced with exceptional difficulties. There are many knotty industrial problems to be solved before the present tangle can be unravelled. ’
