ARAPUNI WORKERS
NEW EXECUTIVE CHOSEN ELECTION HELD YESTERDAY (From Our Own Correspondent.) HAMILTON, To-day. The abortive strike at Arapuni two months ago and the labour troubles that followed practically paralysed industrial unionism there. The last executive was suspended by the New Zealand Workers’ Union for calling the strike, and since then there was no executive of the. Arapuni Branch of the IsT.Z.W.U. until one was elected yesterday. Following the strike there has been much unrest, aggravated by the dismissal by the Sir TV. G. ArmstrongWhitworth Company of the leaders. So yesterday’s meeting was either boycotted or neglected, only about GO men or one in seven of those entitled to be present assembled. Mr. A. Cook, secretary of the N.Z.W.U., attended from Wellington, and Mr. J. B. Williams, district organiser, were present. Members of the temporary executive elected pending the annual meeting in October were:—President, Mr. F. Hill; vice-president, Mr. E. Logan: secretary, Mr. H. Peoples; committee, Messrs. R. Gilpin, A. Blanchard, T. P. Winikeri, T. Woods and C. Kecgh.
