THE MINERS' STRIKE.
United Press Association—By Electric Telegraph—Copyright, Received March 4, 11 a.m. Sydney, March 4. Mr Wade has prepared a statement in vindication of Government’s policy in industrial disputes. He declares that the Industrial Disputes Act will never be invoked against unions carrying out the legitimate work of unions. At the same time it offers unionists, as well as the public, ample protection against the class of men that are the workers worst enemies and a menace to the public. A deputation from the discharged free labourers complained to the Minister of Works of their unjust treatment by employers, and they offered to unload the Government coal cargoes. The Minister declined to take any action. The Labour Council decided tojpay £3 weekly to the families of the imprisoned strike leaders with 5s additional for every ohild'under 16.
