ONE ORGANISATION SUGGESTED. ' MEETING OF UNION EXECUTIVES. | A of executives of trade ■ unions held la>t night, for the pur- , i posp of considering industrial matters. | Mr. P.. Semple. who has been enjrai2ed Iby the Alliance of Labonr to place the ' ' endings of the recent open conference. convened by that body, before the orga- j nised o*f New Zealand, stressed : the necessity of one national industrial j I organisation. He pointed out the futility ' :of two organisations, a≤ at present ex- ■ : isting. nainelT. the Trades and Labour , I Council Federation and the Alliance of Labour. He suggested the fundamental! i basis of a political labour movement ' must be built upon by the industrial ; ! organisations. Experience in other parts '■ !of the -world had taught the organised ; -workers that any political labour move- | ment n>ist be partially controlled and ' j directed by the trade unionists. j The foliotring resolution was adopted: ! ! 'That, in the opinion of this meeting ■of trade union executives, the proposals ! •of the recent conference of the Alliance i lof Labour, providing for one national . , organisation, should be endorsed, and ■ i that members of the Trades Conacil and j ;of the AJHance of Labonr should endea- \ i your to establish one industrial coa- ; ; trolling body." i In order that the above proposals '. J should be placed before the workers, it S vas decided to hold a mass meeting in the Strand Theatre on Sunday afternoon i
