Wage strikes and union issues threaten railway standstill
A dated report describes union tensions over passes and meals, with Oscar Carl Hermann Witter named as union secretary. It notes wage demands, potential work stoppages, and calls for workers to resume duties after pressure and negotiations. The piece also mentions a Gladstone ornamental grounds meeting and a postage tax affecting letters and packets. It ends with a reminder about the Whaat Board election.
