CHILD LABOUR IN MILK DELIVERY
COURT TO TAKE ACTION.
Br Telearanh—Press Association. Auckland, February 22. In the Arbitration Court during the Rearing of t'.n application foi a new award for dairy employees, the question V'. of child labour was raised. It was stat- ’ ed that it was common to see young boys and girls delivering milk in tho early hours of the morning. It was stated that nothing could be done to stop it, till a clause was inserted in the itward preventing young children from being employed. The Court was asked to <lraft a clause to that effect, restraining both employers and employees. The employers’ representative said he
had no objection. • ?Jr. Justice Frazer said the suggestion had the entire sjmipathy of the Court. It could be safely left to them to draft n clause to block the employment of child labour as far as possible.
