SHEARERS’ WAGES.
A CONFERENCE LIKELY. By Telegraph.— Association Wellington, May 13. In connection with the industrial dispute that is now pending affecting the shearers and shed hands of the Dominion, the New Zealand Sheep-owners’ Federation has written to the New Zealand Workers’ Union, of which the shearers are members, asking that a Dominion conference be arranged with a view to reaching an agreement for a new award for shearers and shed hands. It is suggested that the conference should be held at as early a date as possible. Mr. C. Grayndler, secretary of the New Zealand Workers’ Union, has replied stating that he is in favor of a Dominion conference, and that he will place the whole question before the different shearers’ unions.
Jt is likely that a conference will be held at Wellington in June. Actually, what wages and conditions the sheepowners propose should be adopted have not been disclosed.
