MOND CONGRESS.

PEACE IN INDUSTRY.

Machinery Set Up For Preventing Strikes.

UNEMPLOYMENT DISCUSSED.

(British Official Wireless.) (Received 12 noon.) RUGBY, October 19. A joint committee of what is known as the "Mond Conference" on Industrial Co-operation, resumed its meetings yesterday.

- The trade union members of the conference reported that the action of the general council of the Trades Union Congress in taking part in the discussions had been fully approved and that reports on the trade union recognition, victimisation, rationalisation and establishment of a national industrial council and other matters had been adopted.

For the carrying out of the proposals for a national industrial council and the setting up of machinery for the prevention of disputes the co-operation of the national confederation of employers* organisations and of the feaeration of the British industries is necessary, and these bodies still have the matter under consideration.

Pending their decisions, which are expected within the next few weeks, the committee has proceeded with other matters on a comprehensive agenda, and it is understood that the unemployment question was considered at some jlength yesterday.
