PENALISES FOR NONUNIONISTS.
No Roonp For Ttibrn. % Minister Rebels. Per Press Association. Wellinoton, February (I. A Union deputation to-night protested to the Minister of labour against the appointment of four scaffolding inspectors, on tho ground that they were Slot qualified, and throe of them were non-unionists. The Minister defended the inspectors’ qualifications, and said Government was tins tee for the people as a whole, and no Government could ever bo committed to tho policy that Unionists alone should receive employment from it. All things being equal a Unionist would get the preference, if the Minister knew him to be a Unionist, but no applicant would bo asked whether he was U 'unionist, or not. Ho- would not be dictated to by any ,outside organisation. If men showed themselves unlit he alone would dismiss them.
