AN INVERCAKGILL PROTEST.
By Telegraph—Press Association.
INVERCARGILL, April 29. A big public meeting, called by the Mayor at the request of the Employers' Association, was held tonight. It was resolved to protest against the proposed enforcement of the Factories Act as regards the Saturday half-holiday. Mr Hanan, M.H.R., who was present, was requested to take steps to secure the iteration of the Act, and it was decided to send a copy of the resolution to the Minister for Labour. Mr Hanan expressed himself in favour of a universal Saturday halfholiday, but in the circumstances he advocated a district referendum on the matter.
