Moderate union move threatens industry work stoppage plan
A faction of the United Workers Union meeting in a city Congress discussed acting outside the commune to push a general stoppage across the mining industry in America. The Keawer faction aimed to force through a council motion at the Federation meeting in Sydney on June 4, with Victorian representative Williamn leading the move. If the federation balked, moderates warned that the plan would reveal insincere support, prompting a return to work while militant members were sent to Melbourne to distribute pamphlets among trade unions.
