TRADES UNION BILL
MOVEMENT FOR INDUSTRIAL PEACE. (British Official Wireless.) fPreas Association—By Telegrapb—Copyright.) RUGBY, May 1. Replying to the National Industrial Alliance’s proposal to suspend the progress ot the Trades Union Bill, the Prime Minister says that, in view of tho arrangements made, he cannot entertain the suggestion. He hopes that the alliance will recognise that tire Government has no other motive in introducing it than to deal, in the interests of the whole community, with a situation created by tho events of last year. It is not intended to prejudice the well-being or to curtail any legitimate activity of tho trade unions, and he does not think that the Bill will be found, on examination, to have any such effect. Ih believes that when the proposals of the Bill are more clearly understood it will be found that they will not hamper the movement for industrial peace.
