Press Association—By Telegraph—Copyright.
LONDON, August 18,
The Federation of tne General Workers’ Conference passed a resolution expressing dissatisfaction that the Government had failed to relievo industrial depression and unemployment, and condemning the adoption of tho doles system instead of providing remunerative and beneficial work. Mr Ben Tillctfc, the dockers’ leader, said lie would like to induce the world’s workers to down tools until the financiers arranged their differences and stabilised tho exchanges. There was no chance of the cost of living falling. War in a viler form than tho Great War was imminent. It would not necessarily bo an open war, but war by paralysis. Mr J. R. Clynos (leader of the Parliamentary Labor Party) was of the opinion that no international strike or industrial violence of any kind would solve the problem, which must nob bo approached from a class or party standpoint.—A. and N.Z. Cable.
