MOTORS AND RAILWAYS.
WORKSHOPS' EMPLOYEES EXPRESS ALARM.
(FKISS ASSOCIATION TILEQBAH.)
WELLINGTON, December fc.
The Petone branch of the A.S.R.S. has passed the following resolution: "That this mass meeting of the Petone Railway Workshops' employees views with alarm the ever-increasing amount of traffic secured by motors to the detriment of the railway service, which may affect the livelihood of the railwav employees; that goods carried by motor are usually those carried at A, B, and C class rates, whilst the Department is compelled to receive consignments of otner classes of goods which are not so remunerative. W© believe further that good results would be obtained if all employees reciprocate with those traders who patronise the railway service, and we urge upon the Government the. economic necessity of nationalising the transport industry."
