ARBITRATION COURT.
'By Telegraph—Press Association.) Christchurch, last night,
Mr Justice Cooper, at the Arbitration Court to-day, decided that the hairdressers’ assistants come within tho scope of the Industrial Conciliation and Arbitration Act. Mr Justice Edwards some time ago held that grocers 1 assistants and tramway employes were outside the Act, as they "were not connected with a productive industry. Since then, however, the Act has been amended, and Justice Cooper holds that the word industry is extended so as to include businesses, trades undertakings, and employments-of a non-productive character. The point will probably be taken to the Supremo Court for final decision.
