Unions And Volunteer Workers
Sir,—Speaking as one who was a member of the New Zealand Shearers’ Union, I can honestly agree with Mr Thomas on the arrogant and bumptious attitude of some of the union organisers. I have seen it and experienced it As for Mr Dempst-r's saying that the Labour Department is not doing its job. I can truthfully say that I have found the department moat helpful and most efficient The president at the New Zealand, Workers' Union is also secretary of the f
Wellington branch. I have never before in 50 years of union' membership known of a president holding down two jobs in a union which has always stood for one man one job.—Yours, etc, BOOMERANG. Docecnber 12, 1981. <
