ALLEGED MISUSE
OF EXTRAORDINARY POWERS. ACTION AGAINST'RHODESIAN MINING OFFICIALS. (By Telegraph—(Press Association—Copyright) (Received This Day, 11.50 a.m.) JOHANNESBURG, December 22. The South African Trades and Labour Council has cabled to the Australian Mine Workers’ Union for support in securing a democratic trial for F. S. Maybank and C. S. W. Maeyer, who are officials of the North Rhodesian Mine Workers’ Union. They were detained last October for alleged agitation and subversive activity. Maeyer has been deported to South Africa. Maybank, who is variously described as New Zealand born and English born, is being deported to England. The Trades and Labour Council has also protested to the Colonial Secretary, the British Labour Party and the British Trades Union Council, stating that the action against Maybank and Maeyer is an insidious attack against trade unionism and a misuse of extraordinary powers which threatens to lead to an industrial upheaval.
