THE DOCTRINE OF STRIKE.
There is at least one Labour paper in New Zealand that ia not afraid to call a spado a spade. > That paper is the Voico • of Labour. •' In a trenchant article in its last issue, dealing with the Waihi strike, it says:— "Whatever excuse men may have in other parts of the world for preach-
ing the strike policy, in New Zea- ' thero is absolutely none. It is positively criminal to the Labour move-
ment to do to. It is a wicket], wanton and perverse attempt to stir up the lowest and basest passions of mob rule in order that the headers may get a little limelight. Ju<sfc that, and nothing more. The Syndicalist leaders are as blatawtly ignorant a band of gasbags as could bo found anywhere on earth. There is not among them one man capable of rational argument for five- seconds. These are the kind of men who dominate "NVurlii; these are the kind of meoi whom the workers of Waihi allow themselves to bo intimidated and bullied, and insulted bv."
