DANGER NOT YET ENDED
PRECAUTIONS TO CONTINUE. A THREAT IN SUSPENSE. | (Received 2.5 a.m.) ReuteT. LONUON, April 11. In the House of Commons Mr. Austen Chamberlain, moving a formal address of thanks for His Majesty's message relating to the proclamation galling up reserve forces, stated that the Miners' Federation's instructions with regard to noninterference with pumping had been generally followed. He feared that the negotiations would take a considerable time, and would be very difficult. " We must not flatter ourselves,"' he continued. " that we are out. of danger." Mr. Chamberlain pointed out that the threat of an extension of the dispute to the whole transport industry had been suspended but not withdrawn. Therefore it was necessary to continue to take precautions.! The community must show that if its existence was attacked it was able to protect itself. (Labour cries, " No provocative language.') Mr. Chamberlain replied that he was anxious that nothing should be said to make a fair and honourable settlement impossible. He urged the adjournment of the discussion. Tho debate was adjourned till tomorrow.
