TAKING THE TALLIES.
METHOD OBJECTED TO
“When you took your tallies why didn’t you allow the union to have the opportunity of checking the figures?” asked Mr Bromley, agent for the employees in tlie flaxmill dispute, at the Arbitration Court yesterday, of Mr B. L. Hammond, agent for the employers. Mr Hammond : Because, lightly or wrongly, the employers believed that the men would go slow. Mr Bromley objected to this statement and also" to the employers’ figures being put in. Mr A. L. Monteitli, the employees’ representative on the Court, pointed out that the figures represented only one side of the case, and that not as much importance would attach to them as if they had been taken by both the parties. Support for this view was forthcoming from His Honour Mr Justice Frazer, and the point was dropped.
