Scope and Contents

From the Collection:

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 relating to the Building Investigations Committee of the Wellington Branch of the Carpenters Union and MSS & Archives D-11: Wilfred (Bill) McAra papers relating to the building industry in New Zealand, as the three collections overlap chronologically and cover McAra’s involvement a series of interwoven events surrounding the Building and Allied Trades Federation.

It is interesting to note that on an early sample of the Federation’s letterhead McAra’s residential address, 13 Yale Rd, Wellington is given as the organisation’s mailing address.
