SHEARERS’ DISPUTE.
MEN TO RESUME WORK. ACCEPT AWARD RATES. By Telegraph—Press Association. Wellington, Last Night. Following the announcement made by Mr. Baldwin, president, and Mr. Grayndler, secretary of the New Zealand Workers’ Union, the Shearers’ Council of the New Zealand Workers’ Union now advises shearers and shed hands throughout the Dominion to make engagements at the best rates they can obtain. This means that the men can commence work at award rates, but wher- I ever circumstances warrant a higher rate it can be demanded. The award provides only a minimum rate, below 1 which the employers cannot pay. Had the Shearers’ Council been advised or anticipated that Judge Frazer’s decision was to be given a Dominion application the shearing trouble as far as it had rrone could have been averted.
