SUFFER IN NEW ZEALAND

WELLINGTON. New Zealand. October
31-A shortage of food and fuel with it's
accompanying privations for the poorer
classes is commencing to be felt through.
out New Zealand as a result of a general
strike of coal miners and lockers.
Work has ceased in most trades in
every port Of New Zealand. In Yelling
ton and Auckland. the two principal
cities, continued rioting has brought
about the landing of bluejackets from
British warships to assist in preserving
order. The bluejackets are assigned
primarily to protect the men engaged in
loading fruit on vessels in the docks and
to see that passengers are allowed to EN-
bark or land from steamers without
molestauon.
The struggle which has led to this seri-
Gus state of affairs is trial Of strength
between the employers and the Fedora
ton of Labor The latter organization
is not registered under the provisions of
the compulsory arbitration and concilia-
tion act passed in 1902, by the terms of
which any persons melting workmen to
strike or any employers ordering lock-
out without first going to arbitration
are liable to severe penalties.
The labor upheaval began with strike
of shipwrights several weeks ago. The
men demanded higher wages. improved
working conditions and recognition OF
their union. The lockers and miners
in sympathy and other trades followed
their example until a large proportion OF
the organized labor Of the dominion has
ceased work,
