THE ENGLISH RAILWAY MEN.
MINIMUM WAGE FOR MINERS,
[Press Association—Copyright:]
London, Nov 12.
Mr A. Henderson, M.1., in a speech declared that the refusal of the railway ■ companies to meet the men to discuss the findings of the Royal Commission was against the spirit and even the letter of the report of the Commission. At the same time he challenged the men's assertion that recognition of tho unions had not been granted, and he warned them that if they rejected the report it would estrange public support. The coal owners' representative on the Coal Conciliation Board of England and North Wales lias agreed to the principle of a minimum wage, which has been referred to the local districts to report on by December 6th.
