RAILWAY APPOINTMENT
JUNIOR MEMBER TO GRADED
POSITION
ASRS CALL SPECIAL MEETING PA WELLINGTON, Apl. 15. The president of the Amalgamated Society of Railway Servants, Mr J. Barton, and the vice-president, Mr W Parks, will arrive in Wellington on Tuesday to discuss with Wellington branch officials the recent appointment on an appeal of a junior member to a graded position. The appointment was discussed at a special meeting of the Wellington branch last night. The branch chairman in a statement to-day said: “The feeling of this well-attended meeting was of keen resentment and as it was considered that the appointment would vitally affect the interests of all members of the ASRS, a resolution was carried that a special meeting of the national executive be called to discuss the position. The resolution was communicated to the national president at the close of the meeting, the president advising that he and the vicepresident would arrive in Wellington on Tuesday morning to meet the local branch officials.”
