ABORTIVE CONFERENCE
The term of the award under which the flaxmills employees’ are at present working expired on March 31st last, and recently the Union formulated demands for a new award, the rates of pay of which are a decided advance on those of the old award. A conference of representatives of the Union and the Association was held on Saturday morning to endeavour to arrive at an agreement. After two and a half hours’ deliberations no agreement was arrived at, although the proceedings were conducted in a friendly spirit. The next move will be an appeal to the CouciH •■>ll Council or the Arbitration Couit.
