The secretary of the Australasian Workers'" Union, states that .if, the farmers carry out- their proposal to come, to; Sydney to handle "blacV' wheat it will be a case of "New Zealand over again." Unless there, is an early settlement of tho trouble there are fears that other unions will do involved. Trouble is looming in getting the new wheat crop shipped owing to the Rural Worker;' Union declaring "black" all wheat stacked at Tailway stations by nonunionists (stated a previous cablegram).
