THE STATE MINES
' THE PROPOSED SALE. TRADE’S' COUNCIL'S OBJECTION. [Per Press Association.] WELLINGTON, This Day. The Tracies Council, in a statement opposing tlie proposal to sell the State mines, urges that the tendency elsewhere is towards the extension of State undertakings to check the rise in prices. Nationalisation of coal is advocated in Great Britain. The labour troubles experienced by private mine owners," as well as the Government sale, would lead to an advance in coa] prices. The State should rather seek to improve the enterprise by the collier service.
