Dairy farm labour dispute resumes at Supreme Court Christchurch
The Conciliation Board met at the Supreme Court in Christchurch with a private pre-session among the chairman Ir W Minson and the farm employers and the Farm Workers Union. DPD Fenes for the employers argued against Union claims for fixed hours and a Saturday half-holiday, citing cost, weather, and dairy market pressures. Union witnesses claimed flexibility and mutual agreement, while evidence suggested no clear demand for a half-holiday. The board adjourned at 4 p.m. to reconvene next day.
