ONE BIG UNION
Rail way Servants OPPOSITION FROM DUNEDIN (United Press Association.) Dunedin, July 4. A repudiation of a statement _ at a recent meeting held at the Hillside Railway Workshops that the rank and file of the Locomotive Engineers, Firemen and Cleaners’ Association were in favour of the formation of one big union for railway servants was made to-day by the chairman and secretary of the Dunedin Branch, who stated that the locomotive men throughout New Zealand were as strongly opposed to the one big union idea within the railway service as they were when they formed their own organization nearly 30 years ago. The association to-day was more solid than ever in its history, having nearly 99 per cent, available membership and practically 100 per cent, financial membership.
