"CHAMPION" IS THE WORKERS' FRIEND AND PROTECTOR. (Star, April 19, 1900 ) 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 w >uUI 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 of Southern flour had been coming into 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 be considerably higher. He suegested that the matter should be brought before all the unions asking them to support the local mills. The chairman, Mr W. H Brooks, endorsed the last speaker's remarks, remarking that it was a well-known fact the flour received from the Auckland mills was good, and that BAD REPORTS HAD BEEN RECEIVED OF THE SOUTHERN FLOUR PLACED ON THE MARKET, while the American flour was reported to be even worse. Mr Derrick moved "That the secretary he instructed to write to the various unions calling attention to the facts, and asking them to support local manufactures in preference to importations." The motion was carried unanimously. mHE "/CHAMPION" IyrOTTO IS pRIME 11/ TILLING WHEAT AND pOOD TXTAGES.
