LONDON, August 17.
Mr. W. C. F. Thomas, the employers' delegate to the International Labour Conference at Geneva, is conferring with Mr. Charles Crofts, the employees' delegate, concerning the advisability of reporting upon the futility of Australia sending delegates to such conferences.
"I realise that Australian labour conditions are so far ahead of other nations that Australia is unable to consider uniform international Labour codes without retrogression, which is too ludicruous for serious consideration. Personally I intend to inform the Government in a straightforward manner that sending an Australian delegation is unwarranted and a mere waste of money."
