“We must accept the trade union secretary as a part of our: society." said Mr Sinclair Carruthers at last week’s meeting of the Wellington Chamber of Commerce. “Organised business and organised labour have got into hostile camps, but the union secretary in his relationship to organised labour is id much the same position as management is to business. The managers of businesses generally have psychological advantages over the union sec? retary. but personally I don’t think we have shown much constructive imagination in our attitude to labour organisers. In our dealings with the union secretary we have to be more constructive because whatever our feelings may be the union secretary will be with us so long as he is complementary or necessary. To change this attitude of hostility to one of cooperation and undestanding is one of the big jobs ahead of the Chambers of Commerce.” •_ ’
