COST OF LIVING BONUS.
PROCEDURE FOR PAYMENT. By Telegraph.--Press Association. Dnnedin, Last Night. At a sitting of the Arbitration Court to-day, Mr. Evans (secretary of the Otago Labor Council), said delay in filing applications for the cost of living bonus had caused inconvenience to both parties, and lie suggested the' Court should issue a direction that officials whose duty it is to apply should do so .as early as possible; further, that the Court should deal with those applications wherever it happened to be sitting. The president said there was no rea,son why the bonus should not be paid as from the date fixed, which the Cjurt would fix as soon as a pronouncement as to the rates for the nix months was made. Where employers had relevant considerations to put forward they must be given an opportunity to be heard. The President suggested that Unions should file their applications straight ,away in order to let the employers know what they were asking for, and where the employers assented as a matter of course their representatives might endorse the applications, and they could be forwarded to the Court.
