MOTUEKA INCIDENT
NO VICTIMISATION. NELSON, This Day. Mr D. R. Park, president of the Motueka Airport Construction Branch of the New Zealand Workers’ Union, has issued the following statement:—“Arising out of various press articles concerning the Motuekta dispute, I feel it my duty to publish a statement on behalf of the Motucka branch. We appreciate the supporting attitude of our fellow unions in our dispute, but there is one point I would like to correct, as it may cause a certain amount of misunderstanding. After perusal of my Union’s minutes and correspondence, I find that there is nothing to indicate that any official or member of this Union had been victimised and discharged through this dispute, that is, other than the normal shortening of hands through work nearing completion. ’ ’ —(P.A.)
