The Employers' Defence Committee, in its message to Mr W. M. Hughes, the Federal labour leader, states the position in regard to tho New Zealand crisis in a clear and intelligible manner. It is quite evident that the emissaries from the Labour Federation who are at present in Australia are endeavouring to provoke unrest in the Commonwealth by deliberate mis-statements of fact. The pity of it is that there is not some reciprocal law to prevent, revolutionaries travelling from one country to another and inflaming the populace by gross misrepresentation'. The laws of the United States* appear to provide against militant undesirables from securing admission to that country.
