On the motion of Mr Thorn (Canterbury) it was resolved that whex*eas all the financial benefits accruing from labour legislation in the past had been nullified by the action of the capitalists class raising prices out of proportion the increase in wages, and whereas the reason of this i lies in the uncurbed powder of capitalists, this Conference strongly urges the people of New Zealand to make a stand and demand legislation that will initiate a system of producing the necessaries of life and of supplying them to the pfople at a lower cost.
