CONTROL OF LABOUR.
AMENDING ARBITRATION COURT. United Press Association—By Electric Telegraph—Copyright SYDNEY, March 5. Additional drastic provisions have been inserted in the State Ministry’s Amending Arbitration Bill. The measure provides for absolute preference in employment to financial Unionists. All the loyal employees who came to the aid of the Government during the 1917 industrial upheaval will be compelled to join Trade Unions recognised by the official Labour movement. The registrations of six Industrial Unions are to be cancelled. Under one clause, an officer of an Industrial Union may require an employer to terminate the employment of any employee who, at any time after January 1, 1917, had been engaged or retained in employment during the period of any cessation of work of other employees in an industry, on account of an industrial dispute, and has not subsequently become a member of a Union.
