MINISTER AND UNIONISTS.
A HEATED DISCUSSION. By Telegraph.—Press Association. Wellington, Tuesday. A heated discussion took place between a deputation from the Furnituremakers' Union and the Minister of Labor on the subject of the Labor Department. The union reiterated its contention that it had no faith in the Department owing to its refusal to take to court breaches of award brought under its notice by the union, and oases before the court at Wellington from other parts of the district. Mr. Millar strongly opposed such a proposal, and said he would amend the Act so as to divide the district into a number of minor districts in order that cases might be heard in or near to the places where they were alleged to have occurred. He added that if the unions generally passed a resolution in favor of the abolition of the Labor Department he would be willing to introduce a Bill to that end.
