BRITISH TRADE PROSPECTS
GRATIFYING FEATURES. CONCILIATION AND GOODWILL. (British Official Service.) Bugoy, Feb. 3. Sit Austen Harris presiding at the annual meiging of Lloyd’s Bank, en dorsad the opinions, which have been expressed by chairmen of other big London banks regarding trade prospects. Sir Austen said: “Features of a very gratifying nature stand out os beacons of encouragement, and hope. One is the marked decrease in the number of unemployed. The other is the comparative freedom during the past twelve months from serious labour disputes and strikes. I think it is becoming recognised that a greater feeling of mutual confidence is growing between employers and employed, to the great advadtago and benefit of both. “A very encouraging spirit of conciliation and goodwill on the part of some of the prominent leaders of Trade Unions has been ev’denced by their speeches, and discloses a desire on the part of the- responsible men to do everything possible to avoid the disastrous recourse to strike.”
