Mr. Fraser paid tribute to the workers’ organisations, which co-operated to relax many provisions in their awards and agreements and extended the Government’s warmest thanks to all members of the council for their services, which had been given in an entirely honorary rapacity. Mr. Fraser especially mentioned Mr. T. O. Bishop, who acted as chairman of the conn oil in the absence of the Minister of Labolr, the Hon. P Webb, His long experience of in* dustrial matters had contributed greatly to the valuable work performed by lhe council.
