A TRADE UNION'S BUGBEAR
THE BOSS AND THE "LITTLE MAN." As instancing the tactics of some trade' unions in Australia, the following appears in ths "Furnishing Trade Worker," Sydney, of July 3, 1916:— Hang this up. You and your boss ■hare nothing in common. Everything we gam !s his loss; everything we submit to is hie harvest. Get busy about it. The same union's attitude toward the struggling "small man" is thus frankly indicated in the paper-.— It has often been remarked in these columns that the bugbear of the furnishing industry is tho "little man," who, 'unfortunately for organised labour, is going to tho wall far to«> slowly. A few instances of the truth of the above view have .been brought under no- • tice lately, with, tht result that Court proceedings were decided on as the only satisfactory ccutso in . the interests of the trade.
