ORGANISED INHUMANITY.
DISPLAY OF RACIAL SPLEEN. o*bk Pbbm uSjuqoiation-I Sydney, January 4. Mr O'Sullivan, general secretary of the Railway Workers' and General Labourers' Association, in his report to the sixth annual conference, severely criticises the action of certain organisations in refusing to work with enemy subjects. The report stated that the executive discountenanced such action in the strongest possible terras as being a violation of the spirit of unionism which might be appropriately termed organised inhumanity enacted under the guise of a pseudo-patriotism.-Tliere was no room in the ranks of unionism for a display of racial spleen. A man's worth a.s a, citizen and a unionist was not determined by his nationality any more than by his religion or the colour of his hair. The president, in opening the conference, stated that, sooner or later, all unions would extend their functions in the direction of the management of industry.
