DEADLOCK IN BUTCHERS’ DISPUTE.
Wellington, Yesterday. The proceedings in the Conciliation Council in connection with the Wellington operative butchers’ dispute came to a deadlock to-day on the question as to whether the Council should go into committee. The workers objected to the presence in the room of eight employers other than the five assessors and moved that the council should go into committee.
The employers objected, claiming that there was no provision under the Act for proceedings to be held in committee, stating that when the council had gone into committee previously it was done on the wish of both parties. The (Conciliation Commissioner, when pressed for a decision, said that the Act had been stretched a little to give the country master butchers an opportunity of being represented by intending assessors, three to five in number. Both sides were fairly well represented, and under the circumstances he thought it advisable that the Council should go into committee with the agents. The proceedings broke up and the Commissioner said that he would refer the matter to the Arbitration Court.
