It let first few minutes of the Sec Ond half were charac Cusi d by Opp ii play both learns tin owing the Ball a but to better effect than had been the Case during the first half.

Fists were wandering in the scrums and referee Hinksman had occasion to administer a caution Toj players of each team. This action did not have the de sired effect and a few moments later after a particularly severe piece of rucking Savage of Queanbeyan went Down on the Broad of his Back and took the Jack Grant on of Canberra s leading forwards was sent to the sideline and took no further part in the game. The game was held up for about five minutes while Savage regained his1 equilibrium. The closing stages featured some attractive football and the Homo Side gained the upper hand for a time. Norton narrowly missed when he at tempted a Field goal from Well Back. A determined movement by Queanbeyan appeared Likely to bring Suc Cess but Robbie achieved a wonder Ful intercept and reached half was before passing to a o Brien.

Stye Canberra Simes monday apr Al 19, 1937 l american Industrial disturbances Industry has been subject to much disturbance in various. Countries during recent months. This was particularly so in Arnerich. Towards the end of last year Trade betwee the United states and Australasia was seriously affected by the Dis location of trans Pacific shipping caused by an american strike and Many persons on the Way Back to Australia and new zealand were held up for weeks. About the same time a big automobile trouble was in Progress and despite efforts for settlement lasted a considerable time. Arising from the prevalent unrest the new Forth of stay in strike appears to have developed. Early in february the shipping strike on the Pacific coast of the United states was ended by an overwhelming vote of the unionists concerned. This meant that 40,000 men returned to work while 239 ships resumed operation. Business interests estimated that the upheaval had Cost. Al 71,500,000. About the Middle of february the production of vehicles was resumed in Moie than 30 Industrial cities As the result of a strike settlement in the american motor Industry. A wage increase exceeding six Mill ions a year was promised by general motors corporation. In March it was announced that the danger of a Geneval cessation in american steel Industry had been averted by an agreement with the Carnegie steel corporation which provided for Union recognition a wage increase and a working week of 40 hours. T subsequent cables reported an epidemic of sit Down strikes in factories or stores in new York Detroit and other cities. On March 2 1 it was estimated that at least 1 00 of these strikes were in Progress in the Republic also that seven states and 1 40,000 persons were affected. About the same rime news came that roving bands of Ghi strike pickets had closed nearly 100 stores at Providence Rhode Island for a Brief period. Early in april a Cable message stated that 300/000 miners in eight states will receive wage increases totalling �21,250,000 annually the result of a strike also that the sequel would be an increase of 25 cents a ton in the Price of Coal. In View of the above and Many other happenings of a like nature it was not surprising to read that the strike wave in the United states had extended to Canada. Last week a Cable from Monreal set Forth that the general motors corporation Plant at Oshawa Ontario had become involved. Conferences called with a View to reach a settlement failed. Trie Premier of on Tario or. Hepburn refused to Deal with a delegation which included any paid foreign the company decided to resume partial operations and or. Hepburn promised that those desired to work would be fully protected. At the same time a Force of 300 Canadian mounted police was assembled in readiness for any emergency. The Premier s action and provocative utterances were criticised in the Dominion parliament and later news reported a Cabinet crisis in Ontario. Meanwhile or. Henry Ford in the course of a further attack on labour unions referred to them As the worst things that Ever struck this Earth a rather amazing outburst from a Man has frequently been described As a Model employer. Or. Ford also Reitci ated that he would never recognise the automobile workers Union or any other Union for collective bargaining. The whole position is rendered More Complex by the that there Kare rival unions in the Field he old american federation of labour and the new committee for Industrial organisation led by j Ohn l. Lewis has recently attained such notoriety and secured widespread publicity. A new York report skates that clashes have occurred in several mining centres Between the rival Union groups. In some of these shots were exchanged and several were injured. Recent decisions of the United states supreme court Are acclaimed by labour leaders on the ground that they give Freedom for Union organisation and will end company unions these decisions it is hoped will eliminate the principal cause of Industrial unrest. In this respect the american employers View differs almost entirely from that of australian employers. In Liis country peo Isle have become accustomed to the systems of conciliation and arbitration and there is no body of Public opinion prepared to revert to the. A Iel practice of individual bargaining. It Fis True that some australian unions have from time to time refused to accept awards and a have struck against them by Way of protest. But it is also True that generally these strikes failed after involving the strikers games d. Braddon 1 set 27 games. Sayer d. Mackinnon 6-2, 6-4 d. Kaye 6-0, 6-.0. R. Craw Ley d. Kaye 6-1, 6-1, v.
