UGLY UTTERANCE
COOKS’ STRIKE SEQUEL GARDEN SENT FOR TRIAL (United P.A. — By Telegraph — Copyright) SYDNEY, Friday. The secretary of the Trades and Labour Council, Jock Garden, was today committed for tial on all charges concerning his utterance with regard to the marine cooks’ dispute. Bail was allowed. The Marine cooks have now made a definite move toward ending the dispute. They have proposed to the owners that the latter may pick up cooks at any place the owners consider desirable. This move overcomes the last hitch in the sef.lement, and it is now anticipated that peace in the shipping industry will be speedily restored, and all vessels, including The Ulimaroa, recommissioned.
Garden was charged at the instance of the State Government on four counts with inciting to murder. It was alleged that he used the following words in the course of comment on the cooks’ dispute: “We may supply union men for ships, and it may mean that non-union cooks who are not good sailors will become sick and lose their balance when they go to the side of a ship. The sea is deep, and dead men tell no tales.”
