W
Highly
reliable

said
Friday
night
that
the
clause
providing
for
government
supervision
of
secret
strike
votes
will
remain
in
the
labor
legislation
now
before
the
House.
The
same
sources
said
there
was
likelihood,
that
Labor
Minister
George
Pearson
would
resign
his
portfolio
although
it
is
known
he
opposes
the
super
vised
strike
clause,
holding
that
it
would
be
impracticable.
Mr.
Pearson
is
expected
to
move
second
reading
of
the

and
throw
the
strike

Into
