Preference to Unionists Debate at Council Meeting
At a Monday council session Dr Geddes pushed to strike a ban on favoritism for unionists or non unionists in municipal hiring. The move, backed by Dr Freeman, argued ratepayers should have equal job access regardless of union membership. Several speakers, including Dr Cockburn and Mr Jeffery, contested the motion, but the council voted to support the principle. The mayor and others asserted equality in employment access, with Dr Cockburn vowing to reinsert the motion later.
