BAN ON IRON EXPORTS
SUPPORT FOR AUSTRALIAN WATERSIDERS DECISION BY SEVENTEEN UNIONS. GOVERNMENT THREAT DEFIED. By Telegraph—Press Association Copyright. SYDNEY, December 4. Delegates from 17 unions, meeting at Wooliongong today, decided to support the waterside workers’ ban on loading pig iron on the steamer Dalfram for Japan, and to defy the Federal Government’s threat to impose a licensing scheme at Port Kembla. The crew of the Dalfram assured the meeting that they would refuse to take the vessel to sea if the iron were loaded. The meeting decided that, if non-unionists were employed to load pig iron on any vessels, those vessels would be refused, repairs in all Australian dockyards.
