LABOUR PARTY
AUTHORITY OF CABINET. CHALLENGED BY UNION JOURNAL. (By Telegraph—Press Association.) AUCKLAND, May 31. Reference to the Labour Party conference in Wellington at Easter is made in the June issue of “Metal” the official journal , of the Northern District Engineering and Related Trades Union of Workers. Under the heading, “The Labour Party Conference,” “Metal” says: “The tumult of the 1939 conference has died down, but it will leave its mark on the movement. This union will stand or fall by the rank and file control principle that has been denied the Parliamentary Labour Party by Cabinet. “No verbal or written ‘eyewash’ can deny that fact. “We are not concerned just now with the pros and cons of the dispute on policy, which came up, but we are concerned with breaches of faith and principles abrogated. “There is room for differences of opinion, but not for dictatorship in the Labour movement.”
