WATERSIDE TROUBLE
STILL NO CHANGE WORKERS WILL NOT NET CARGO There was no change in the situation on the waterfront on Saturday. At the 7.45 a.m. call the stevedore's foremen called for men to discharge the cargo from a Home steamer with nets. There was no response. Then Mr. W. M. Bennett, secretary of the Employers' Labour Association, mounted the' stand. When he was about to speak one man said: "If you've got anything to say, why don't you say it through the proper channel—the union?" Mr.. Bennett said he only wished to say that men were wanted on a ship who were prepared to use the. nets. Again there was no response, and Mr. Bennett thanked the men and descended to the wharf.
