COAL MINES
RATIONING OF WORK
A meeting of coal mine owners was held in Wellington yesterday to consider certain aspects of the rationing of work, not as a general principle, as it is probable that each mine will act independently in this respect, but to confer regarding certain features of the case of the Blackball mine. The Blackball mine has been idle for several weeks because of the reduction of hands on account of the reduced output. The men have demanded sharing the work on their own terms, and it was this matter which was chiefly discussed yesterday. It is possible that a conference will be held on Monday next between representatives of the mines and the Blackball company^to consider this question.
