LABOUR'S ATTACK ON JUDGE Sill. [EX TELEGEAi>H — Si'ECIAL TO THZ POST.} AUCKLAND, This Day. The president of the Auckland Employers' Association (Mr. D. Goldie), when asked by a Star representative how the employers viewed the' action of the Labour Conference in carrying a resolution condemning Mr. Justice Sim as president of. the Arbitration Court, said he thought the action of the representatives of Labour was much to be regretted. It was apparent, however, that the delegates to the Christchurch conference believed they had got just about all they could get out of the Arbitration Court, Some of the unions,.
in cancelling their registration under the Arbitration Act, had openly avowcl that their reason for so doing was because- they felt that they had get all that was possible through the Arbitration Court. In Mr. Gcldie's opinion Mr. Justice Sim had certainly never at any time shown favouritism one way <jt the other, but had won the respect of the employers as an honest, straightforward, and impartial judge. The c-ut-conie of the present Dominion Conference at Christchurch will have a serious bearing on existing labour conditions, in Mr. Goldie's opinion.
