  • FRANCIS DRAKE WILLMOTT !Nterviewed by John Ferrell (10 Tapes)
    FRANCIS DRAKE WILLMOTT !nterviewed by John Ferrell (10 tapes) and Del Willmott (3 tapes) Introduction This collection of memories is the result of a series of interviews with my father. The first two of these (Bridgetown and Political Memories) were carried out by me in 1988 and a third (Hale School) in 1992: Unfortunately work pressures and other matters intervened and I did not carry on with this project and the matter rested until my daughters, Deidre and Helen, decided in 2001 that they would engage a professional interviewer to talk to Frank who was by then aged 97 but still quite alert mentally. These interviews consisted of one hour of discussion each week and were conducted by John Ferrell who previously had interviewed a number of former Federal MPs. When completed Helen and I transcribed these interviews. As I did the transcription work I realised that it was a great pity that I had not carried on in 1988 as Frank's memories were much less clear by 2001. I also felt that my previous feeling that it was better for these interviews to be carried out by a non-family member without one ofus present was wrong. I found myself continuously wishing that John would ask "the next question" which I knew would have revealed a lot more information because I already knew at least part of the answer. As a result of this I felt that in addition to an accurate transcription of Frank's words for future reference it would be interesting if I provided an edited version to which was added my own knowledge and memories because, of course, our memories overlap to quite a considerable extent.

  • The Marriage and Divorce of Industrial. and Political La£Or in Western Australia
    THE MARRIAGE AND DIVORCE OF INDUSTRIAL. AND POLITICAL LA£OR IN WESTERN AUSTRALIA Essay by Ly1a E11iott* *Third Year Student, Edith Cowan University, 1994 THE MARRIAGE AND DIVORCE OF INDUSTRIAL AND POLITICAL LABOR IN WESTERN AUSTRALIA It was two o'clock in the afternoon on 11th April 1899, in Pearce's Athletic Hall in Bayley Street, C091gardie. -- Mr. Hugh De Largie, presi?ent of the Amalgamated Workers' Association, called to order the 21 delegates who had assembled for the First West Australian Trades Union and Labor Congress. It was appropriate that he chair the Congress as it had been convened on his initiative "to bring all into line for common action." (1) In addition to union delegates there were, among others, also delegates from the Kalgoorlie, Boulder and District Trades and Labor Council and the Perth Trades and Labor Council, which had been established earlier in the decade. The Congress sat for five days. The location of the Congress reflected th~ strength of the Trade Union Movement on the Goldfields. The miners, attracted to the area following the discovery of gold, were both numerous and active unionists. In the Great Strikes of 1890 to 1894 the attempts of the trade unions to achieve justice for workers through industrial action had been defeated by the backing of employers by the Colonial Governments using the machinery of the State : the police, troops and the Courts. They came to the conclusion that if they were to be successful they would have to put their own representatives in Parliament. To achieve this they needed firstly a united Labor Movement and secondly to organise politically.
