" CHAMPION " IS THE WORKERS' FRIEND AND PROTECTOR. (Star, April 19, 1906.) ATTITUDE OF THE TRADES COUNCIL. At last night's meeting of the Trades and Labour Council, reference was made to the effect the operations of the Southern Flour Trust would have on the pockets of the workers if the local mills were unable to keep pace with the competition. Mr W. Peake mentioned that large quantities 6,f Southern flour had been coming icto Auckland, „and stated that it,was to, their own interest for the workers to,,stand by ■ the local mills, but for which the price of flour would now b&' considerably higher. He suggested that the matter should be brought before all the unions asking them to support the local mills. The chairmau, Mr W. H. Brooks, endorsed the last speaker's remarks, remai'king that it Was a well-known fact.that the flour received from the Auckland mills was good, and that BAD REPORTS HAD BEEN RECEIVED OF THE SOUTHERN FLOUR PLACED ON '. ; THR MARKET, while the American flour was reported to be even worse. Mr Dtrriclc moved: - lThat the Secretary be instructed. to r write to the various unions cal'it/g attention to the, facts and ashing them to support local mrinvfac ures injorejerenze- to importation*. The motion was carried unanimously. THE "CHAMPION" MOTTO IS PRIME MILLING WHEAT & GOOD WAGES." Mm BMLY, FJ.Z.AA, ACCOUNTANT & AUDITOR. Secretary— Omata Co-operative Dairy Coy.
