MR BALDWIN
MANAGERS AND DIRECTORS COX DRAINED. Press Association—By Electric Telegraph—Copy right). LONDON, Nov. 23. Addressing six thousand Scottish unionists at a conference at Glasgow, with the relaying of the speech to three thousand in an adjacent hall, Air Baldwin declared that there was a spirit of give and take in Europe, which was absent before the war, affording a happy augury for the future. Aloro had been accomplished in the past eight years, largely by the present Govonment, than in any other country in connection with slum improvements. British industry was justifying itself in the face of the world. Britain would emerge the most efficient industrial nation on the globe, but the youth -and ability of the nation must help to regain that supremacy. This was no time for incompetents, whatever their age. or numbers of men battened on to joint stock companies as managers. There were also directors who were parasitical, which the country would not tolerate. While the nationalisation of industries was idling hundreds of thousands, those who arrogated themselves freehold positions were not removing themselves unless bribed.
