INDUSTRIAL PEACE.
Concerning the question of industrial relationships, when speaking at the Reform rally at Wellington, the Prime Minister said that one of the outstanding events of the present year was the holding of the National Industrial Conference. “The Government,” he added, “can claim credit reasonably for having during its term of office maintained industrial peace in the community. The conference recently concluded will have done, much in clearing up misunderstandings and bringing about better relationships between Capital and Labour. (Applause). “Industrial peace in this count]’} is a factor and something .to . be envied,” said Mr. Coates. “Strikes and disturbances bring unhappiness lo the working community and distress and worry to those dependent upon the industry. As it retards the individual, so it affects the whole State. 1 say that eveiytiiing will be gained by industrial peace. Probably this Government, more than others, has managed to permeate that feeling of good fellowship and. understanding between employer and employee, which means so much to our future prosperity.” (Applause).
