BRITISH LABOUR PARTY
INTERNATIONAL AIMS A DEMOCRATISED BRITAIN London, December 19. Mr. Arthur Henderson, M.P., m an article in the "Manchester Guardian," states that under its new constitution, tho Labour Party would be founded on tho National Trade Unions, Socialist societies, and local Labour organisations. An industrial democracy, rather than the State organisation of industry, was the ultimate aim it had in view. Internationalism was tho cardinal doctrino ot the Labour movement, but the party would not suffer its internationalism to bo the negation of its ideal of Jimpire. It ivoulu become an alliance of free peoples under democratic Governments. The first step would be to mako Britain ;x democratic State.—Aus.-N.Z. Cablo Assn.
