Garden, M.P., who was expelled recently from the New South Wales Labour Party, commenting on last week-end's additional expulsions by the executive in Sydney, said that Mr. J. T. Lang and his henchmen were taking their last leap. • Some of the men just expelled had been union secretaries for over 30 years, and it was not likely they would go down without n tight. Mr, Lang was gradually losing support ami events were now favouring the unions which were the backbone of Labour's political movement, but three months would elapse before the position would be properly clarified. By that time, the new directors would have control of the Labour newspaper. A conference at Sydney attended by representatives of 62 unions, with one dissentient only, condemned the action of tho Lang faction in expelling the Parliamentarians and union leaders. The conference also decided to appeal to the Federal Australian Labour Party executive to intervene in the present Labour dispute.
