UNION PREFERENCE
Drastic Provisions in Bill Sydney, March 5. Additional drastic provisions have been inserted in the State Ministry’s amending Arbitration Bill. The measure provides for absolute preference of employment to financial unionists. All loyal employees who came to the aid of the Government during the 1917 industrial upheaval will be compelled to join trade unions recognised by the official Labour movement. The registration of six industrial unions is to be cancelled. « Under one clause an officer of an industrial union may require an employer to terminate the employment of any employee who at any time after January 1, 1917, has been engaged or retained in employment during a period of any cessation of work of other employees in the industry on account of an industrial dispute and has not subsequently become a member of the union.
