CLAUSE PROHIBITING STRIKES. HELD TO BE VALID. (United Press Association—Copyright.) (Received This Day, 11.35 a.m.) MELBOURNE, This Day. The High Court of Australia, ill a majority judgment, held that the Commonwealth Arbitration Court had jurisdiction to include in the seamen’s award a clause prohibiting and penalising strikes or “job control.” The court also dismissed an application by a member of the Seamen’s Union for an injunction restraining the Comananwiealth Attorney-General (Mr Menzies) from enforcing the licensing provisions of the Transport Workers’ Act. The application by a seaman named Elliott for a contempt order against Menzies and others was, by consent, held over.
