CLOTHING INDUSTRY
FACTORIES BUSY IN DUNEDIN & AUCKLAND. NO REDUCTIONS IN STAFFS. (By Telegraph—Press Association.) DUNEDIN, December 6. “We know nothing of any reductions in staffs in Christchurch or anywhere else in New Zealand at present,” commented the managing director of a leading Dunedin clothing factory when a Christchurch message concerning staff reductions was referred to him this evening. "Certainly there are no reductions in Dunedin staffs. Most factories are very busy indeed and are likely to be working at high pressure, at least till Christmas. From our advice that should be the experience of properly-conducted factories throughout New Zealand.”
According to a message from Auckland, activity in the’clothing manufacturing trade in that city is described as intense. Overtime is being regularly worked in an endeavour to complete orders before Christmas. In the normal course of eVents the industry would be busy at this period, but the chief reason for the exceptional rush is attributed to the leeway in. work resulting from staffing disorganisation during the measles epidemic.
