WAGES INCREASE
AN EXEMPTION ORDER REFUSED (Per United Press Association) AUCKLAND. Sept. 30. An application from employers bound by the S oremen and Packers’ Award for exemption from the general order of the Court of Arbitration for a 5 per cent, increase in wages was refused by Mr Justice Tyndall in a judgment. The grounds stated in the application were that the award granted substantial increases in wages and that there had been nothing to justify any further increase since it was made. “ The first ground is virtually an appeal against the court’s recent .decision following upon the hearing of the storemen and packers’ dispute,” the judgment states. “If an order were now made to exclude them from the operation of the general order,- the court's previous decision would be, in effect, annulled.”
