5. 8. 51 of the Constitution is altered by adding at the
and thereof the following paragraph :—
(x1) Combinations and monopolies in relation to the
production, manufacture, or supply of goods or services.’
Moreover, in a further Bill introduced on October 5, 1910,
entitled ‘ Constitution Alteration (Monopolies), 1910°, the
Constitution was to be altered by inserting after s. 51 thereof
the following section :—
51 A. When each House of the Parliament, in the same
session, has by Resolution declared that the industry or
business of producing, manufacturing, or supplying any
specified goods, or of supplying any specified services, is the
subject of a monopoly, the Parliament shall have power to
make laws for carrying on the industry or business by or under
the control of the Commonwealth, and acquiring for that pur-
pose any property used in connexion with the industry or
business
(d) Arbitration Low.
It has been found necessary also because of the narrow
view of the legislative power of the Commonwealth taken by
the High Court to seek to amend the powers given to the
Court of Conciliation and Arbitration. The matter came to
a head in the woodworkers’ case, viz. The Federated Sqw M wll,
Timber Yard, and General Woodworkers Employés’ Associa-
tion v. James Moore & Sons Proprietary, Limited: Many
! (1909) 8 C. L. R. 465. For the discussion on the Bill for the Act of
1904, see Parliamentary Debates, 1903, pp. 3183 seq., 4140 seq., 4736 seq. ;

1910 by Act No. 7. Cf. Keith, op. cit., pp. 110 seq.
