Thejudgespecifiedthat HaxellandFoulkesdeliberatelydeceivedtheunion membership.Extraballot paperswereprintedand fraudulentlyfilledin,hesaid inhisverdict,addingthat forgedenvelopespurporting tocomefrombranchsecretarieswerepostedafterthe electiondeadlinesothat unionlocalssupporting Byrnecouldbedisqualified.

Thejudgeruledthat Byrnewasinfactelected, andshouldtakeoverimmediatelyfromthedeposed Haxell.Theunsuccessfful candidatesandtheunion wereorderedtopaythe costsofthe33-dayHigh Courtsuit,estimatedat about£112,500.

AconsequenceofByrne's victorywastheexpulsion oftheElectricalTrades

R.:Itwouldbeexceedinglydifficulttoseehowthe motto"rusticanimal"could beapredictionofPope BenedictXIV!However,to dissecteachandeverytitle isasheerwasteoftime.To thewholeseriesonecould applyCicero'sremarksin his"DeDivinatione,"II56, aboutthe"OraclesofApollo.""Chrysippus,"he,wrote, "thatfilledanentirevolumewithAppollo'soracles which,tomymind,arein partfalse,inparttrueby coincidence(asisveryoftenthecaseinoracularutterances),inpartsotortuousandhazythatthein-
