RECENT STRIKE AT HASTINGS.
NAPIER, May 12. The following is a copy of a letter received by one of the bakers' drivers concerned in the late strike at Hastings, from the Department of Labour:—"l am directed by the head of the Labour Department to remind you that in consequence of your conduct in ceasing work without proper and legal notice, you have rendered yourself liable to being proceeded against before the Arbitration Court-for a serious offence against the Industrial, Conciliation and Arbitration Act, 1905, and I am directed to warn you that a similar offence in future will be followed by enforcing the full penatly the law allows. The mere fact that you are not a member of a trades union does not relieve you of the responsibility of the said offence.—Yours faithfully, Ernest W. F. Gohns, Inspector of Factories."
