(Received February 28, at 10.45 a.m.) The Premier (Mr Bavin) has taken steps to restore the privileges of tlio 1917 loyalists in the railway and tramway services. The Bang Government, by legislation, took away certain privileges of the loyalists and restored the seniority of strikers, so that they now rank as if they had not participated in (ho 1917 strike. The Bavin Government believes that an injustice has been done to the loyalists in consequence of Mr Lang’s action. Mr Bavin said, seeing that the legislation passed by Mr .Bang had altered the whole .system, it was impossible to get back to the position which would have existed but for that legislation, without serious consequences, but he would do the best he could.
