TRADES UNION CONGRESS.
LABOR MEMBERS DESIRED.
STRIKES FUTILE,
By Cable.—Press Association.-^Copyrisfut
Sydney, April 1. The Trades Union Congress adopted a resolution emphatically protesting against Mr. Wade's coercive Industrial Disputes Amendment Act of 1090, and pledging itself to use every effort to return Labor members at the next election in sufficient numbers to have the amended Act repealed and the Industrial Disputes Act itself amended so as to be suitable to workers. Another resolution was carried that the Congress favors obtaining its ideals and redressing its grievances by constitutional methods, and is of opinion that strikes should only be resorted to when every possible hope of conciliation has failed. The supporters of the motion urged that past experience had proved that it was futile to expect redress of grievances hv resort to strikes, and that the ballot-box was the only channel through which it was possible to achieve their ideals.
