COST-OF-LIVING BONUS

RAILWAYMEN DEMAND PAYMENT.

By Telegraph—Pre«a Anociatiou. Christchurch, January 16. The Amalgamated Society of Railway Servants has decided to take a ballot on the question of striking in the event of non-payment to the members of the society of the cost-of-living bonus recently granted to unions by the Arbitration Court. Ballot papers were issued yesterday to the Canterbury members and are returnable next Saturday. In connection with this announcement an official stated on Saturday that the Prime Minister announced that he would give the men another Wages Board Commission to go into the question of wages, only the commission would consist of three representatives of the A.S.R.S. and three representatives of the Railway Department, with an independent chairman. Tho members are asked to vote, not on a straight-out strike, but as to whether they will support the executive in any action it may take.
