MINERS' WISDOM.
SYDNEY, July 14. The Coal Miners’ Federation have withdrawn the injunction proceedings aganuft the Coal Tribunal, as no good purpose would be served by spending the Union’s funds in testing validity of laws.
In the High Court in June last, the Workers’ Industrial Union of Australia applied for a rule nisi to I restrain the Coal Tribunal from dealing with the dispute in the coalmining industry on the grounds that there is no industrial dispute, and that if there was a dispute no specific dispute had been referred to the Tribunal, and that the Coal Tribunal had no jurisdiction to investigate the dispute because it was not validly constituted under the Industrial Peace Act, 1920, or under the Constitution. Mr Justice Higgins dismissed the first two grounds, but granted a rule nisi in tee third ground.
