TASS CONFERENCE
TASS delegates at their Annual Conference from 3rd7th May have the possibility of giving a lead to the entire working class in the fight against State pay laws.
The Coventry No. 6. Branch have submitted an amendment to a resolution for a substantial national wage claim, stressing the necessity for a sliding scale of wages clause.
