Immigrants Deny Council Misleading Claims at Sydney Meeting
The Sydney Labor Council faced scrutiny as two new immigrants denied being misled about work prospects. After landing from the Commonwealth, they were guided toward farming or country labor, then told to join a union for dock work. They declined farming, were offered country labor at seven pounds daily, and urged to depart, despite hopes of engineering work. The Intelligence Department traced them, but the Labor Council refused to reveal names.
