DEFENCE INDUSTRIES
(Received 9.30 a.m.)
MELBOURNE, this day.
The Labour conference adopted the plan for the formation of a union panel to assist the Government in industrial matters concerning the war. This means that all the Federnl unions with members engaged in defence industries will grant full co-operation in the national war effort.
Several amendments, one aiming at assurances from the Government before eo-operntioTi is granted and another fleinaDding u working class Government, were overwhelmingly rejected.
As a result of the decision the Government will be forewarned of any disabilities likely to prevent continuity of production.
