LABOUR AND INDUSTRY
Australian Press Association. LONDON, 9th September. Mr. J. H. Thomas in tho "Sunday Express" says that the chief significance | of the T.U.C. congress at Swansea was the overwhelming endorsement of the policy of negotiation with the employers and resort to reason instead of force. "It means a new era in the relationship of capital and labour." Mr. Walter Citrine, secretary of tho T.U.C, in "Reynolds," says that tho congress marked the turning point in tho economic life of Britain and brought the trado unions into a profoundly important relationship with industry. It was in tho clearest manner shown that the unions were not pursuing the will of the wisp of industrial peaco, but were making a practical effort to demonstrate their ability to contribute substantially to a solution of national ills.
