VISAS FOR AMERICA
Restriction Denied
No discrimination was made against New Zealand trade union leaders entering the United States, said the United States Labour Attache in New Zealand (Mr R. C. Scrader), in reply to a question at the Trades Hall on Tuesday.
Mr Scrader is on an introductory visit to Christchurch and Dunedin. He replied to a series of questions from Canterbury trade union leaders.
"I am sure no restrictions are directed against trade unions,” said Mr Scrader.
The general secretary of the New Zealand Freezing Workers’ Association (Mr F. E. McNulty) had given examples of two union leaders not being able to get visas. One was a leading official of the Freezing Workers’ Association, and the other was a Well-known Timaru union leader, said Mr McNulty. Entry to the United States had been very much liberalised under the last two Presidents, said Mr Schrader.
