Arbitration Court case on basic wage clash in NSW

In Melbourne the Arbitration Court heard that Mr Gibson of the Federated Engine Drivers and Firemen's Association sought a case to determine if the Commonwealth Arbitration Court may set wages lower than a State tribunal. He noted tension between NSW Board of Trade fixed rates and federal awards, and that the High Court would soon decide if the Commonwealth can override State awards. The union sought to include NSW members under the Board of Trade figures, but the request was refused as the union is federal, with a plaint claiming £3 15s and a proposed basic wage of £4 17s 6d a week. The High Court had ruled the Commonwealth Court cannot award contrary to a State tribunal.
