Hotel Workers Want Conference To Restore Trade Union Unity
WELLINGTON, Last Night (P.A.) —“We strongly urge the Federation of Labour to call forthwith a unity conference with a view to reconciling existing differences.” That was part of a resolution unanimously adopted at an emergency conference of the New Zealand Hotel Workers’ Federation, which began today. The report supplied from the conference says there was a full representation of the nine affiliated unions. The main business was to consider what action should be taken in connection with the recent split in the Federation of Labour, with which the hotel workers are affiliated. The conference adopted a resolution expressing concern at the threatened split in the trade union movement and the possible formation of a new national organisation of trade unions. “We believe the interests our workers demand that unity between the trade unions be preserved,” the resolution added.
