LABOUR PROBLEMS
DOMINION’S GENEVA DELEGATE.
FAREWELL TO ME. CORNWELL.
By Telegraph—Press Association. Wellington, April 11.
Prominent representatives of Labour gathered in the Trades Hall to farewell Mr. F. D. Cornwell, secretary of the Wellington Trades and Labour Council, who proceeds on Monday to the International Labour Conference at Geneva. He was presented with two travelling rugs, the speakers being Mr. J. Read, president of the council, Mr. P. Fraser, M.P., Mr. G. Bodell, a past president of the council, Mr. R. Semple, M.P., Mrs. Gibson, on behalf of the women of the Labour movement, and Mr. Walter Nash, M.P. Mr. Cornwell, in reply, agreed that more could be done in an hour’s conversation than in a year’s correspondence, and he welcomed the opportunity of meeting Labour men overseas with whom he had been in communication for a number of years.
