A STRIKER LIBERATED.
AN INDIGNANT NEWSPAPER
(Received 2, 9.5 ,a.m.) Sydney, October 2. Dixon, secretary of the Federated Ironworkers, who was sentenced on September 19th to two months’ imEnsonment in connection with the ithgow strike, was released by Mr. Holman on Saturday. Coincidentally Mr. Holman left for a week-end holiday. The “Herald” suggests an escort for Dixon to ILithgow, to make sure of his return. The “Herald” proceeds: “The extraordinary effrontery of the action of liberating Dixon passes comprehension. The laws are operative only when it pleases the Minister of Justice. Why have any taws at all? Let us have straight-out anarchy.”
