A LABOUR QUARREL
, A.S.R.S. AND E.F.G.A. SOME CHARGES AND A REFUTATION. “NOTHING SHORT OF A TRAGEDY” The other day th© general secretary of the New Zealand Locomotive Engineers, Firemen, and Cleaners* Association (Mr W. McArley) stated that there was in the possession of his association a circular issued to members of the E.F.C.A. by the officials of another association, which alleged that the E.F.C.A. had agreed to alterations in hours of duty and penal “The E.F.C.A. stands for no alteration in these conditions,” said Mr McArley, who added that in his opinion the circular was libellous: it contained no truth whatever. “Steps will be taken,” he said, “to show the thinking public of New Zealand that ‘Kaiserism’ is not confined to Germany only. So far as my members are concerned, they will not be coerced into joining any high-toned organisation, repudiating any agreement, or giving up their demands for a proper wage for engineers, firemen, and cleaners.”
