Warning To Working

A Review of 'An Introduction to the Study of Industrial Relations" by Professor John Richardson, Allen & Unwin, 30/-

became a fixed rule If "Equal Pay for Equal Work" for both sexes, the employment of women would decrease, according to Professor John Richardson, of Leeds University. In his new book “An Introduction to the Study of Industrial Rela- tions" (published by Allen and Unwin, London ---- 30/-), he declares that Lot only in the professions, but also in industry, the Civil Service and other occupations, the application of the principle of equal pay is econo- mically sound and an expression of elementary social justice.

The former "Hermann Goring which the occupying Powers once swore to level to the ground, installed last Wednesday Western Germany's most modern steel rolling mill.

The mill has cost nearly 90 million marks to build and its foundation stone was laid only one year and one month ago. Soon it will be pro- ducing the biggest steel castings in Europe, and will be working up to a yearly output of over four hundred thousand tons of rolled steel.

Over three thousand workmen have been finishing the job in record time. Many of the technicians come from Berlin and almost 90 per cent of the constructional work is being carried out by the Berlin firms of Siemens, Buraig, and ĂEG.

Japanese Deal To Buy Ship For Scrap Falls Through

London, Apr. 8.

Negotiations to sell the 15,316-ton British liner Akaroa to Japan for scrap have fallen through because of Japanese currency difficulties, it was learned here today.

The deal has been cancelled by the owners, the Show Savill and the Ablon Line, because
