JOCKEYS' SYMPATHY
AUCKLAND, April 29
The executive of the New Zealand Jockeys' Association have lost no time in making it known they are with the raiLwaymen. This morning; the executive met and carried the following resolution :—
"The executive of the New Zealand Jockeys' Association endorse the action of the railway workers in striking for increased rrages and better conditions. We pledge ourselves to support them both morally and financially, recognising that their claims are just and reasonable. We are further of the opinion that the Government is deserving of the strongest censure for the indifferent manner in which they have handled the railway workers' claims for the past few years, in that they failed absolutely to take any notice of repeated warnings until, through their indifferent handling of the men's just claims, they have plunged the Dominion into a disaster for which they are wholly responsible. 1'
