BAIL REFUSED.
WALSH AND JOHNSON. ‘IRRITATION STRIKES ADVOCATED (A. anti N.Z. Cable.) SYDNEY, Nov. 28. Application to the High Court ior the release of Walsh and Johnson on bail, in order to facilitate the preparation of their cases in the various Courts, has been refused. A meeting of the Trades and Labour Council discussed the pending deportations, and decided to endorse a scheme for holding a series of irritation strikes in as many industries as possible. The debate was heated. One proposal, which was narrowly defeated, was that no action should be taken beyond ensuring that the dependants of deportees receive monetary assistance. A special meeting of the Transport Group yesterday discussed ways and means of executing the Council’s decision. At Melbourne a conference of unions strongly opposed general or irritation ' strikes on the deportation issue. It was decided that the only action to be taken' would be-separate protests by each organisation.’
