EMPLOYERS' ASSOCIATION AND THE FARMERS.
' -■';"... AN ENTENTE. CORDLiLE. ,■' , Discussing the suggested affiliation of the Farmers! .Ijnion; with the'.Employers'. Association, the official organ of the Union says the proposal does not meet with the: approval of the Union, and on several accounts it. is impracticable. .'.'For'instance' (says the "Advocate'') : the -Farmers' Union ' admits farm employees as members,; whilst; with the Employers' Association this is obviously impossible:' .There is no reason, however, why the two" bodies , should not : work': amicably, togother; and! that- when question's affecting the iwholo arc', involved: joint , action should not:.:bo taken. We' are, w;e feel: suro, ex- ■ pressing the opinion, riot, only of,the executive, - but;''of '.the; whole .'of- the members of the' Farmers' UnionJ when .we say that any assistance 'rendered"in tho farm ' labourers' and, .shearers'- - disputesj ,now ' before the country, /be . gratefully ..acknowledged! Moreover, the Fanners' Union is willing to reciprocate should occasion arise."
