ARBITRATION COURT
LABOUR POLITICIAN'S VIEWS.. AUCKLAND, June 3. “I think the Arbitration Court in Australia has outlived its usefulness,” said the Hon. Mr Beckett, a member of the Victorian Legislative Council, who is a through passenger by the Niagara at Honolulu. “What do you think will take its place?” he was asked. “Well, that is an exceedingly difficult question to answer,” he replied. “The abglition of it will be the biggest question at the next elections. My own personal opinion is that the system of arbitration must prevail. It must he kept in action as ’far as the larger industries are concerned such as steamship companies and the shearing industry" but apart from those two I think that the Bruce Government will take away all other activities. With all courts, arbitration or justice, thd people must have absolute confidence and in regard to the Arbitration Court in Australia the people have lost that'confidence.” Mr Beckett, who is a member of the Labour Party, represents Melbourne North in the Victorian Council.
