WORK AND WAGES.
WATERSIDE WORKERS. By Telegraph.—Press Association. Wanganui, Monday. Interviewed by a Herald representative, the secretary of the Wanganai Waterside Workers' Union said hi* Union had received no complaints re the increase of pilfering as complained of in Auckland. The status of the mwi •working on the wharf had been greatly improved since the formation of the union, one of whose objects had been to do away with even a suspicion of this sort of thing. He ridiculed the idea of unions encouraging such practices. The Wanganui Harbor Board authorities also state that since the formation of the Waterside Workers' Union here there had been a remarkable absence of pilfering. These opinions are borne out by local merchants.
