AWARD BROKEN
HAMILTON BAKERS FINED From Cur Resident Reporter HAMILTON, Today. In the Hamilton Magistrate’s Court today, F. Findlay, baker and pastrycook, of Hamilton, was proceeded against by "the inspector of awards, Mr. F. Wilson, for breaches of the award. It was alleged that Findlay employed certain workers before 3 a.m. between August 1, 1929, and August 30, 1929, and that he failed to pay overtime rates as demanded by the award. • Two of Findlay’s employees, H. Alexander and H. Stevenson, were jointly chai-ged with combining with their employer to defeat the award. In entering a conviction in each case, the magistrate, Mr. Wyvern Wilson, remarked that the parties were not permitted to arrive at a mutual agreement of this kind. He was satisfied from the evidence submitted that Alexander had been doing journeyman’s work, arid could not therefore come within the definition of a doughman. He was a journeyman assistant to a doughman. The cases would not necessitate a heavy penalty. Findlay was convicted and fined 20s. Each of the other defendants was fined 10s and costs.
