NO COMMUNISM
, .BEITISH UNIONS SIGNIFICANT REVERSES British Official Wireless; BUGBY, 30th May. A series of trade union conferences was held during the Whitsuntide lioJi.day, and they have now concluded. At all of them resolutions condemning the aims and policy of the Communist Party, and the Minority Movement, were carried with overwhelming majorities. Added significance is given to those reverses for the Communists by reason of the fact that at'the conferences held at Easter, Conimnniam was equally strongly condemned, and the newspapers anticipate that the move-' ment of trade union ppinion is likely to be upheld within the next two months by other unions, notably by the miners, the railwaymen, and the transport workers. The issue will be tested at the miners' conference, at Llandudno in July, and as a precautionary measure an extensive committee of tho Miners' federation have begun a campaign againafc the Minority Movement' in Scotland, Yorkshire, and South Wales. .
