STOP-WORK MEETING HOUR, AUCKLAND, February 21. A suggestion that to avoid economic loss and inconvenience, waterside workers’ stopwork meetings should be held in the dinner hour, is to he convoyed from the Auckland Chamber of Commerce to the authorities competent to deal with the matter. The Council of the Chamber discussed the question at its meeting yesterday, and made this decision. Members pointed out that the holding of meeting in the morning often resulted in interference with the distribution of perishable cargo. One member said that if it was good for one class of employees to hold stonwork meeting, it should be equally as good for other classes. The view of the majority, however, was that it was reasonable for the watersiders to meet during the daytime. hut that delay to cargo handling would be maintained if the dinner hour were included in the time taken.
