RAILWAY WAGES AGAIN.
•
Home Railway stocks are now hanging fire a little owing to a report of revival of demands on the part of the workers that there shall be a full restoration of the cuts in wages of a few years ago. In view of the fact that traffics are not showing too well at the present time it is only natural, perhaps, that stockholders should be concerned with regard to the possibility of any further heavy increase in working expenses. Fortunately. however, there has now been restored the machinery for dealing with disputes of this character so that it may fairly be hoped that the points at issue will be settled In due course without anything even resembling a Labour disturbance.
