LABOR LAWS
By Telegraph—Press Association. Christchurch, last night. At the annual meeting of the Canterbury Employers Association, the President, Mr G. T. Booth, said that in face of the large increase of imports, and in view of the general prosperity of the colony, it would be absurd to hold that manufacturing industries are developing as rapidly as they should. He did not think, however, that this was wholly or even mainly due to the operation of the Arbitration Act. On the whole the Court had had the loyal support of both sides, and its awards had been generally received in a good spirit and faithfully obeyed. On the other hand, it could not be denied that the Act bo far had been tested under highly favorable conditions, and it remained to be seen whether it would work equally well in the face of adverse conditions.
