“ONE BIG UNION.”
(Received 10.0 a.m.) Sydney, January 16. Amalgamation appears to be in the industrial air at present. Besides the inter-State consolidation of bush workers and State unification of labourers unions, a proposal is afoot in the form of an inter-State -Federation of building trade organisations. Clerks, shop assistants, and storemen are also contemplating amalgamation. The Labour paper, “The Worker,” announces that if the scheme adopted by the conference of delegates is accepted by the union, amalgamation will have a roll call of 100,000.
This will mark another great advance towards the ideal of one big union, embracing the workers of every calling, will have been brought appreciably nearer realisation.
