SYNDICALISM IN WALES.
♦ : •' 'Hie i>TO\vth of syndicalism in South Wales and its bearing on the minimum wage agitation, is strikingly illustrated by a pamphlet, entitled "Tlie Miners' Next Step,'' published in the Western Mail. The pamphlet, which was published at Tonypandy early in -he yeai", l^ut has now been withdrawn, advocates the formation of a South Wales Miners' Industrial Organisation for the purpose of carrying out a policy of open hostility to the employers with a vie.w to eliminating -them.-alto-gether and establishing an industrial democracy. To this end it is suggested ''chat the lodges of the organisation should "as far as possible discard "thf old method of coming" out on sti'ikc for any litle minor grievance, and adopt the one scientific weapon of the irrita tion strike by simply remaining- at work, and' so contrive by their general conduct to make the colliery unremunerative." The minimum wage is the first objective, but after it is secured a continual agitation must be carried on in favour of reducing the working hours from eight to seven, while the minimum wage remains untouched, s" that the output per man will be reduced and the profits of the coal owner and. the income of he -shareholders will disappear.
