Substitution For Court Opposed By Attorney General
Melbourne Thursday. J G Lathem, Federal Attorney General, spoke at a meeting of Nationalist supporters saying he did not agree with Sydney's提 suggestion to replace the Arbitration Court with a round table conference. He said the Arbitration Court was not 100 percent satisfactory but had settled disputes well and should not be abolished without a better alternative. He argued arbitration and conciliation offer more peaceful settlement than the old system, noting the need for proper machinery and the court to provide trials.
