Steamship Owners Appeal to Court in Australia
In Melbourne the Federal Arbitration Court heard Steamship owners appeal to deregister the Seamen's Union and cancel its award. Mr Justice Powers questioned the aim of banning the union while seeking industrial peace, with arguments from Mr Russell Martin for the Attorney General and Mr Thomas Walsh. Witnesses attested to union actions affecting ship operations, and Mr Martin argued the union had long sought to undermine the shipping industry. The hearing touched on eligibility and nationality, with the court reserving judgment.
