WATERSIDE WORKERS' CONFERENCE.
By Telegraph.—Press Association. Wellington, Last Night. The Waterside Workers' Coiiferentc spent to-day's sitting in discussing suggested aiucndmcnts to the Conciliation and Arbitration Act. It was resolved to support an amendment to provide that Conciliation Hoards shall be composed of one member from either party, appointed as at present, and that unions taking disputes to the Hoards shall have the right to add two assessors as required, the unions to appoint any assessors they please. Among other recommendations the more important are:. That the appointment of any officer fir' any member of a committee of management of a union, being purely a matter of internal management, should be left entirely to the union to decide as it pleases; Unit the conference affirms the principle that the statute law should be amended to provide that all agreements and awards shall provide for straightout preference to unionists.
