MOVE BY LABOUR FEDERATION (N.Z. Press Association—Copyright.) (Rec. 11 p.m.) . WASHINGTON, June 5. Maritime Amions affiliated to the American Federation of Labour have called for a simultaneous stoppage of work at 2 p.m. to-morrow. The stoppage will affect 62,000 workers in all the nation's ports."

Both sides are reported to-day to have made further concessions, but it is regarded as significant that Government agencies have intensified their preparations for a possible strike.
