UNEMPLOYED UNION.
CONFERENCE DECISIONS
Per Press Association
WELLINGTON, Sept. 12. The conference of the National Union of Unemployed has concluded its deliberations. The conference decided that the major demand of the National Union be the abolition of all existing relief of unemployment schemes and the substitution of either national unemployment insurance or work at award rates of pay. It was decided to adopt a policy of organised opposition to any attempt to force married men into camp. In view of the fact that the National Union included 35 women’s organisations, it was decided to ask the Gov r ernment to make provision for unemployed women on an equality basis with men.
