BANK OFFICERS
GUILD CIRCULAR MINIST. VAV S WARNING (Per Press Association.) WELLINGTON, this day. Strong exception to a circular sent to bank otlicers by the Bank Officers' Guild in regard to a ballot on the proposal to form a. hank officers' union was taken by the Tlon. IL T- Armstrong, Minister of Labour, who said to-day that it deliberately misrepresented the position and contained what ho could only describe as "poison." Mr. Armstrong said he advised bank officers to refrain from voting until the true position had been explained to them, because, whatever the result of the ballot, if they did not accept his advice and register under the Arbitration Act in order to retain the separate identity of their organisation they would be in grave dancer of being absorbed by an outside organisation. If that happened they would be entirely responsible for it themselves, lie said.
