30th January, 1891.
Mr. David Orme, General Secretary
United Mill Employees' Society.Dear Sir—I am directed to say, in reply to yours of 21st instant, that the matters referred to therein have already received careful consideration at the hands of our Society, and that at the meeting at which they were considered it was unanimously decided that every miller should be at liberty to work his mill and make arrangements with his men as he should think fit. Under these circumstances, our Society can see no benefit to be derived from a conference as suggested by you, but must leave it to each millowner to work his mill as he thinks best.
Yours truly,
W. G. Aspinall,
Hon. Sec. N.Z. Millers' Association.
