CLERICAL WORKERS.
UNION REGISTRATION. Per Press Association. DUNEDIN, June 4. In the Supreme Court, Mr Justice Kennedy made an order to-day for the removal to the Appeal Court of the. proceedings instituted to determine the validity of the registration of the Otago Clerical AVorkers’ Union. The Arbitration Court recently held that the Stock and Station Agents’ Clerical Employees’ Society should be included in the general clerical union, declining it registration as a separate union. Mr J. F. 13. Stevenson (AA’ellington), who represented the stock and station agents’ employees, stated that the grounds for asking the removal to the Appeal Court were the magnitude of the public importance of the questions involved and that it affected the validity of all clerical unions registered in New Zealand, whose membership was twenty thousand. Both in law and fact the matter was very important.
