TRAWLING STRIKE
MEN WILL DISCUSS CONCESSION BOATS MAY BE DOCKED Until the arrival of the West Coast trawler, the Thomas Currell, which is expected at Auckland this evening, no further developments are expected in connection with the trawling dispute in which Sanford, Ltd., and the crews of their trawlers are engaged. On the arrival of the Thomas Currell »rll the crews will then be ashore and it is expected that a full meeting of the men will be called to discuss the concession made by the company of z. 4 hours’ and 36 hours’ shore leave alternately. The men, who now get 24 hours’ leave a week, ask for a weekly break of 36 hours.
It is likely that both the Thomas Currell and the James Cosgrove will be docked for annual overhaul pending a settlement of the dispute. The Humphrey and Serfib, both manned by nonunion crews, are still at sea.
