TEACHING APPRENTICES
MILLINERS’ OBLIGATIONS The duties of the proprietors of hatmaking factories in regard to training apprentices were the subject of a long and involved discussion before the Conciliation Commissioner, Mr. P. Hally, yesterday morning. Several firms cited in the Northern Industrial District Tailoresses’ Award (dressmakers’ and milliners’ section), sought a definition of their obligation to teach apprentices the whole trade. Employers were represented by Messrs. S. E. Wright, advocate, C. B. Plummer, R. Tukerman and O. Daring. Miss Cossly claimed that, as the union. The speakers admitted that the main difficulty was to differentiate between millinery and plain factory hat-mak-ing. Miss Cossly claimed that, in the factories were in direct competition with the milliners, they should not be entitled to exemption. She would, however, be satisfied if girls were taught everything performed in the factories in which they were employed. Mr. Hally announced that he would seek further information and call the parties to meet him again ip a month’s time.
