Trade Unions And Production
Sir—l was interested in the letter appearing in your paper today by the New Zealand Welfare League, on “Trade Unions and Production.” It certainly makes interesting reading and shows just how far one side is prepared to co-operate in maintaining production and service. Another case I recall recently was a prosecution of a tea-room proprietor for employing a female after 10.30 p.m. Surely “for the duration” at least, this absurd law could be altered, and the hour extended till 11 p.m. This would give restaurant proprietors a chance to cater for their theatre trade and would inflict no hardship on anyone. . , The class of male labour required for this service 'lias always been hard to obtain and will be more difficult than ever now our men are required for overseas service. Here is a chance for the unions to exercise that co-operation we hear so much about and which is so essential today.—l am, ete., WHAT IS CO-OPERATION. Wellington, April 29.
