N.S. WALES POLITICS
SETTLEMENT OF CRISIS. AVOIDANCE OF AN ELECTION. (Press Association— by Telegraph—Copyright.) SYDNEY, December 18. A meeting of the Australian Labour Party carried a resolution stating that the Executive endorsed the action of the Parliamentary Labour Party in bringing about a settlement of the political crisis, so that the full programme of the Government could be carried out. An amendment was then moved that Messrs Goodin and Gillies be called upon to apply to the Executive for reinstatement. The president (Mr Scale) _ ruled this out of order, as Messrs Goodin and Gillies had broken the principles of the Labour movement, and were therefore outside the movement. The president’s ruling was defeated, and a motion was carried rendering the prospect of an election more remote than ever.
A MOTION OF CENSURE. SYDNEY, December 19. (Received Dec. 19, at 5.5 p.m.) It is understood that when the House meets to-morrow Mr T. R. Bavin will move a motion censuring the Government for dishonouring its pledge regarding the holding of an early election.
