GRIEVANCES OF RAILWAYMEN.
$ “One Who Knows” writes to the Auckland “Herald”: —It seems the leading members of the self-styled Locomotive Engineers’ Association miss no chance of trying to impress upon the public how badly they are treated by the Railway Department. If the general public knew all the facts they would unanimously decide that the locomotive men are the besttreated body of men in the Dominion. Nothing is heard from the old hands of dissatisfaction, but young men attempt' to make others discontented. The bluff game is played out. The Department has a majority of members loyal and true who are disgusted by men such as referred to above. The number of resignations given is quite untrue. Officers risen from the ranks cannot support the claptraps this society wants to enforce. It is imaginary that the system is unbending. The greatest consideration is given to members. which the records will prove.
