BEHIND BRITAIN
TO WIN THE WAR
INTERNATIONAL LABOUR
(P.A.) AUCKLAND, Dec. 2. "The Vichy delegate never spoke. I think he felt a little out of place," said the Hon. R. Eddy, M.L.C., who has returned after attending the International Labour Conference at New York. He represented the New Zeaalnd Federation of Labour. His remark was supplemented by Mr. Ben Sutherland, the employers' representative, who has also returned. Mr. Sutherland repeated Mr. Eddy's words, adding: "And looked it." Mr. Eddy said that the conference was well worth while. "There was unanimity among all the occupied countries to assist Britain," he said. "Their hatred of Hitler was most marked." He added that the delegate of Free France spoke lengthily, forcefully, and effectively. Mr. Sutherland said that the delegates of countries that had not previously got together decided to work unitedly to win the war and stick together afterwards.
