Boomerang for Mr. Lang
LABOUR DAILY HITS BACK United Press Association—By Telegraphs—Copyright. Received Friday, 9.15 p.m. SYDNEY, Feb. 25. The Labour Daily, Which, until last week was the weapon Mr. J. T. Lang used for flaying party and political opponents, has suddenly become his deadliest enemy in the hands of the industrial group. Its leading columns to-day give broad hints to the electors as to what should be done with the Leader of the Opposition at the iovt/i----coming election on March J 8 by stating: “Labour is now pressmed with its great opportunity. No longer will Lang be an obstacle to the return of a Labour Government. That bugbear politician is now to all intents and purposes just an ordinary candidate at the polls, and the electors of Auburn (Lang’s constituency) will see ,to it that he is relegated to a place where he can create no further mischief to the party. No longer should we have the cry, ‘Lang is too big a load to carry ’. ’ ’
The Sydney Labour Council has adopted the Labour Daily as its official organ.
