T.U.C. COUNCIL WILL NEGOTIATE
WITH EMPLOYERS’ BODIES,
LONDON, Mar. 1. The Confederation of Employers Organisations and* the Federation of Industries have received a letter from the Council of the Trado Union Congress, accepting an. invitation to a conference with both bodies.
The letter greatly regretted the inability of the confederation and federation to accept the interim report of the industrial peaco conference but expressed a desiro to hear their difficul ties. Thus, tho national organisations on both sides will bo enabled to come into touch. The Council of the Trade Union Congress does not abandon the progress made at the Melchett-Turner conference but hopes to make its recommendations a starting point for an official conference with the employers. The Trade Union Congress Council realises that the Employers’ Confederation deals with Labour problems, while the Federation deals with economic and commercial questions. The Council therefore attaches great importance to meeting a fully representative body of employers, instead of negotiating piecemeal.
