POSITION ON THE CLYDE
AN ADVOCATE OF LABOUR UNITY,
(Received January 30, 2.30 p.m.)
LONDON, 28th January
There is a remarkable development on tho Clyde, where the employees in all the large flourmills have ceased work in sympathy with the strikers. The carters also took a holiday, though they have deferred their decesion regarding a strike. A'big effort is being made to persuade the Corporation employees to stop the municipal services. The leader of the movement is Councillor Shinwell, a cool and forceful speaker, who urges the necessity for breaking down the barriers between the different classes of workers with a view to concerted action. He predicts that unless the union executives get into closer touch with the members the whole of trade unionism will be endangered.
