COOKS’ DISPUTE

QUESTION OF CONTROL

COUNCIL ON ITS TRIAL. VITAL CONFERENCE TODAY, (Australian Press Association.) (Receive! S.2S a.m.) MELBOURNE, This Day. Whoa the conference of the Australia and New Zealand Council of Trades Unions and Maritime Unions meets today, certain union officials will demand that the council either definitely remains in charge of the cooks’ dispute, with or without Mr j. Tudehope’s authority, or retire from the dispute altogether. It is now recognised that the Australia and New Zealand Council of Trades Unions is on its trial and if it fails to insist upon its authority to conduct the dispute it will have been dealt a blow from which it will be unable to recover.
