A GOOD.ADVT. GIVEN BY THE ARBITRATION COURIT. Little did our competitors realise when they set out in the Arbitration Court to clip our wings by endeavoring to import into the tailoring award restrictions that would have interfered with our Modem Methods of production, that they were to give ub such a series of fine advertisements. The Court gave them no hearing at all when they brought forward their speciouß pleas. Now the eminent Judge goes out of his way in Christchurch to rebuke the other side (the worker) for the attitude it was assuming in restricting the earning capacity of employees. ( Listen to this (as per the Press Association repert) : After hearing evidence, His Honor said that at New Plymouth evidence was given that under the team system workers were able to earn 50 per cent higher wages, and to produce clothing at reasonable rates. ' Mr. P. R. Cooke (for the Union): That system robs the workers of their individuality and makes slaves of women. His Honor: The women did not look like slaves. They were strong, intelligent looking -VfOmen, who resisted interference with the conditions under 1 which they were working. The "team" system referred to by Mr. Justice Stringer is not' the system that obtained in the old days when the nigger-driving indulged in brought the system into ill repute. Our modern system we have, described in this space. It is the scientific apportionment and arrangement of work, supervised at every turn, that produces the most economical and efficient results which we pass on to customers. This is why we can turn out clothes so cheaply and yet so highly tailored and eminently satisfactory. We take this opportunity of thanking our competitors for this gratuitous advt. We will have something interesting to say next week. MODEM TAILORS LIMITED, "BESLEY'S" Stratford New Plymouth.'
