REDS NOT WANTED.
RESOLUTIONS BY BRITISH LABOUR GROUPS ACTION AGAINST MINORITY MOVEMENT RUGBY, May 30. A scries of trade union conferences was held during the Whitsuntide holiday and they have now concluded. At all of them resolutions condemning rhe aim's and policy of the Communist Party, and the Minority Movement, were carried with overwhelming majorities.

The issue will be tested at the miners’ conference at Llandudno in July, and as a precautionary measure an extensive committee of the Miners’ Federation has begun a campaign against the Minority Movement in Scotland, Yorkshire, and South Wales.
