PROHIBITING STRIKES BY SEAMEN
AUSTRALIAN HIGH COURTS JUDGMENT
MELBOURNE, March 6.
The High Court of Australia, in 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 Commonwealth At-torney-General, Mr R. G. Menzies, from enforcing the licensing provisions of the Transport Workers Act.
