Press Association—By Telegraph—Copyright,

LONDON, October 6. (Received October 7, at 12.5 p.m.)

Sir G. R. Askwith’s report, on the Dublin strikes recommends the appointment of a Conciliation Committee, composed of masters and men. He condemns sympathetic strikes, but declares that the documents the workers were asked ■ to sign, binding them not to join the Transport Union, interfered with their individual liberty. The masters have declined to accept Sir George’s report, but the workers are prepared to accept it as the basis of future negotiations. THE ‘STAR’S’ SHILLING RELIEF FUND. 200 MORE SHILLINGS WANTED.
