PREFERENCE TOUNIONISTS
It has always seemed to us that the preference trouble would be speedily got over if the awards of the Arbitration Court applied only to unionists. The unionists’ complaint is that they win victories and that non-unionists share in the benefits of those victories, to which the latter contribute nothing, and run no risk, whatever. “The spoils for the victors” is a good principle, and if the Arbitration Court awards only applied to those unions which have fought for them we should hear less about the preference question.—‘Wairarapa Age.’
