WAGES DISPUTE
COTTON INDUSTRY STOPPAGE BELIEVED TO BE INEVITABLE EMPLOYERS’ POLICY CRITICIZED (United Press Assn.—By Telegraph-Copyright.) (Rec. 8.40 p.m.) London, July 22. The Daily Herald says: Less than a week remains before the lock-out notices in connection with the Lancashire cotton industry expire. A stoppage seems inevitable. Any pressure upon the employers to pacific ends will undoubtedly receive full public support. The employers know they cannot succeed in their attack on wages except by imposing a long period of suffering upon operatives, a process which the Government and public cannot idly watch. It would be as well if the employers realized that now without awaiting that event in the wool and textile industry. Their policy in both is hopelessly out of date.—Australian Press Association.
