AMBULANCE—FOR SCABS ONLY!
“ Ample provision for aid to the injured is provided at the Auckland Harbour Board casualty rooms, where volunteers from the Ambulance Corps are always in attendance to look after cases.”
That is the substance of a daily press item. It brings to mind the condition prior to the strike, and recalls the difficulty the Watersiders had to get accommodation for a few ambulance appliances on the wharf. Many were injured who, had they got the proper attention, would have suffered less. One instance will illustrate: Fellow-Worker Patrick had a leg smashed, and lay on the wharf for half-an-hour before even a bandage could be procured. But what does it matter; you workers must he satisfied with worse than cattle treatment. Ambulance is only £or scabs!
There is an important communication for J. Thorp at the Auckland Branch of the I.W.W.
