TRANSPORT BILL
SUPPORT OF THORDON A.S.R.S. (Py Telegraph—Per Press Association) WELLINGTON, August 24. Thordon branch of the A.S.R.S. passed a resolution that inasmuch as. the present conditions in the transport industry involved grave national waste and gave rise to sweating of a very gross character, members of this branch resolve that steps to rationalise tile transport industry and bring it on to a sound and proper industrial basis are urgently necessary in' the interests of the Dominion as a whole. That a continuance of the present chaotic ' competition is seriously jeopardising the welfare of thousands of transport workers, endangering the lives of the travelling public and hastening the d'isintergretion of the transport industry. Therefore members of this branch are firmly and emphatically of the opinion that as the Transport Bill provides machinery essential to enable the situation to be dealt with speedily, and effectively, the principle of national control contained in the Bill is worthy of the wholehearted support of all who have the interests of the country at heart.
