ONE BIG UNION.
THE MOVEMENT STARTED. AUSTRALIA AND NEW ZEALAND. By Telcirai>H—l’reai AmoeUtlea. Wellington, Last Night. \ Mr. Grayndler, secretary of the New Zealand Workers’ Union, has returned from Australia, after representing the Donumon at the annual convention of the oM-hig-union movement. Mr. Grayndler stated that the conference, at which the three largest industrial organisations in Australia were represented, drafted and agreed upon a constitution of general rules governing one big union for the whole of the workers throughout Australia and New Zealand. <
The much talked of one big union had therefore now been launched, and it was an established fact that the organisation represented some 200,000 workers. It would be a political and industrial body, and would have one common policy and one common fund. Aided by a chain of Labor dailies, it would strive towards the common welfare and emancipation of the workers industrially and politically alongconstitutional lines.
