Wilfred (Bill) McAra papers relating to the New Zealand Building and Allied Trades Federation.
Collection
Identifier: MSS-Archives-D-6
Scope and Contents
They comprise papers collected by him during the years he was involved with the Federation and in consequence should not be regarded as a complete set of the Federation’s records. In particular, their sudden termination in 1943 probably reflects the end of McAra’s association with the Federation and his non-association with the new organisation formed on the period 1943 – 1945. This collection should be considered in conjunction with MSS & Archives D-10: Wilfred (Bill) McAra, papers...

1939 - 1945
