MARCH TO TILBURY. RECRUITB EN ROUTE. (Received 12.30 p.m.) LONDON, July 23. Strikers marching from London reached Tilbury as the dockworkera were signing on. They persuaded several hundreds to join the strike. Work was consequently stopped on two New Zealand boats, two P. and 0., two Clan liners, and several smaller vessels. Those marching returned to London, leaving tickets—(A. and N.Z. Cable.)
DANGER TO UNIONISM.
LONDON,, July 23. Mr. J. H. Thomas, Labour M.P., speaking at Derby, said that if the principles behind the dockers' strike represented the intentions of any large mass of workers, it would mean the end of collective bargaining and the end of trades unionism itself.—(A. and N.Z. Cable.)
