The announcement made by Mr. J. M. Baddeley, Minister of Labour, that the Government would see that the wives and families of the striken would not starve was received with jubilation in union circles. In many casei individual unions have made provision for strike pay, and the number of names on the out-of-work books is increasing daily. The Labour Council has taken charge of tho strike on behalf of the unions. Several offers of financial as: sistancc have been received from other States. / The extremists who have been taking a prominent part in the strike are said to. be endeavouring to inaugurate irritation tactics as a. protest against tho action of the employers. Their aim is that unionists engaged in as'many | industries as possible should adopt pinprick measures, and should take generally any retaliatory steps open to them.
