BRITISH COMMUNISTS.
LABOUR "STEAM ROLLER."
THREAT OF TROUBLE.
LONDON, August 10. In a speech at Meadowfield, Mr. A. J. Cook (general secretary of the Miners' Federation) said a Government with the largest majority in modern times had not been able to stand up against united Labour's "steam roller." "The struggle is not finished," said the speaker. "Let mc warn my friend, Mr. Baldwin, that what we did last week we can and will do again. The Commission of Inquiry into the coal industry sHould be described as an inquest upon private ownership. "The failure of private ownership is going to cost the nation from £ 10,000,000 to £30,000,000. Before long there will bo the greatest political crisis in British history. "Labour is then going to sweep to victory."—(A. and N.Z. Cable.)
