(Received July 19, 12.50 p.m.) SYDNEY, This Day,
The Melbourne correspondent of the "Sydney Morning Herald" says that if the Federal Ministry is prepared to promise an assurance by legislation against industrial and military conscription, it is regarded as certain that the opposition of industrial unions to the national register will be withdrawn.
Such a promise will be sought when the Premier, Mr. R. G. Menzies, and the Defence Minister, Mr. G. A. Street, meet the Federal Labour advisory committee on Friday.
