Glenelg Shire Council Cultural CollectionEphemera - Pamphlet - Liquor Trades Defence Union of Australia, Liquor Trades Defence Union, Workers Standards Threatened, Early 1900s
... Union opposed this due to workers losing jobs and lost earnings. The pamphlet illustrates the history of temperance in Australia and the part that trade unions played in the fight against prohibition. Temperance Prohibition Trades Union Union Melbourne Glenelg Shire Council ...This pamphlet was produced by the Liquor Trades Defence Union. Mr John James Liston was secretary to the Union and appointed to this office in 1906. He directed many campaigns against prohibition. The Temperance movement began in Australia in the earl 1800s and advocated for moderation rather than abstinence. In response to this many hotels were converted to 'Coffee Palaces' in the late 1800s and did not serve any alcohol. During World War I early closing was introduced in many states including Victoria. This led to the advent of the 'six o'clock swill' where people would rush to drink as much as they could before closing. Unions such as the Liquor Trades Defence Union opposed this due to workers losing jobs and lost earnings.The pamphlet illustrates the history of temperance in Australia and the part that trade unions played in the fight against prohibition. Paper pamphlet. One piece of paper, folded to make 4 pages. The front page depicts a black triangle shape coming down from the top of the page with the point reaching down. At the top of the triangle are the words 'Workers Standards Threatened'. At the point of the triangle is a man in a rumpled suit and hat. His hands are in his pockets and he has a serious expressions. In the background is an industrial estate with what looks like factory chimneys. There are also small weatherboard houses with 'for sale' signs in front of them. Along the bottom of the page is a black wavy line with the words in off white ' 'prohibition will create unemployment'. The paper is off white/yellow with black text. Inside is a two page spread calling for union members to vote ' No'. The back page features rhetoric on what prohibition would mean to workers and talks of job displacement and lost earnings. The pamphlet is authorised by J. J. Liston, The Block, Collins St, C1. There are what appears to be paint marks on the pamphlet.temperance, prohibition, trades union, union, melbourne, glenelg shire council cultural collection, australian history, alcohol -
