BILL ROUNDLY DENOUNCED.
ARBITRATION AMENDMENT. " REEKING WITH INJUSTICE."! '._ _ ■ j LANG CABINET PROPOSAL. REPORT TO THE COUNCIL. By Telegraph—Press Association— Copyright. (Received September 8, 10.35 p.m.) SYDNEY. Sept. 8. The Select Committee of the Legislative Council, which inquired into the bill to amend the Arbitration Act, which is now before Parliament, reports that the bill is a most one-sided piece of legislation. It is saturated with Soviet principles and reeking with flagrant injustices and therefore would have a most disastrous effect on all industries. The committee recommends the exclusion of all rural workers and domestic servants from the scope of the bill and also other amendments in the direction of enabling industry to function as far as possible normally. The report adds: "It would be absolutely futile to expect a revival of industry under the provisions of this bill."
