HE spectacle of the leader of one of our Labour factions solemnly warning the Commonwealth vernment against the dangers of ;ing another Labour faction ddle with affairs in New Guinea, just too funny—as well as being example on the depths to which called “Labour” has sunk in Aus lia in recent years. lut that is what was happening May, when Mr. Gair, the un )py Premier of Queensland, ssed verbal swords with Messrs, kowski and Dougherty, of the r U, who had signified their inten i of moving into P-NG and anising, first, the Europeans, and n the natives.

Ir. Gair has his own private sons for not liking Bukowski and Gair wants the ACTU to do “organising” in the Territory. t matters little if those Terri ans who want to be organised— I presumably there are some—

choose the AWU or the ACTU formula: but neither variety of Unionist should be let loose on the natives whose interests are more than adequately guarded by the large and specially trained Department of Native Affairs.
