Because of his political activities he was “transferred” to the New Plymouth office of the department in 1932, and on refusing to go was dismissed, which he appealled to the Supreme Court and to the Labour Party.In 1933 he obtained a waterfront job at the Chelsea Sugar Refinery, but was dismissed for refusing to load two Matson Line ships, the Mariposa and Monterey, which had been declared black by American longshoremen. In 1935 he was accepted by the Auckland branch of the Waterside Workers’ Union. In 1944 he was elected national president of the union.Blacklisted from the waterfront and other jobs after the 1951 dispute, he worked as a drainlayer’s labourer. After obtaining a drainlayer’s ticket he went into business for himself with his son Bill, retiring in 1980 at the age of 73.
