Mr. R. Williams, president of the International Transport Workers Fede CHINA COAST METEOROLOGIO. ration, who presided at the opening of the conference, said that similar confer ences had been held in Milan in 1900. and in Paris in 1906. It was essential to-day, he continued, to know what the different countries were doing to improve the economic status of the workpeople. The Transport Workers' Federation in Britain were working in the closest union with the National Union of Railwaymen. They had been compelled to realise that in the modern State it was possible to divert certain forms of transport from railway to canal, road, and constal transport. He hoped that other coun tries would seek to promote similar co- operation between the constituent parts of the International Transport Federa- tion.

Mr. J. H. Thomas, M.P., said they be lieved that just as particular grades 10-fxtr the railway service, of necessity, had their, Bonin technical skill and knowledge, no grade Waib was independent of another. In a con- Hinkow ference of that kind it was very difficult to lay down propositions that would help railwaymen in their particular countries, but the importance be attached to that. conference was that in it they once more realised the need of international bro therhood. If the workers of the world had known each other better before 1814 they would not have passed through the period which they had experienced. He believed that one certain result of the war was the determination of the working classes in all countries not to allow thems selves to be exploited any more. Only a few years ago all the bitter hatred, passion, and prejudice that the Press could work-up was worked up in connec. tion with our late enemies. But the working classes said now that the war was over the first amends they could make were reconciliation and the healing t of the wounds which unfortunately hádéparti ya been inflicted. It was in that spirit that| Dagupan the visiting delegater were welcomed.
It is perfectly true, contioned Mr. Thomas, that we have not reached the end of our fight. We realise that there will be a big struggle yet. I believe that there will be a big fight in the next few months in this country over a new stand, that we, as railwaymen are going to make, and I hope our foreign comrades will clearly understand in advance what our intentions are. We have fought for hours, and and wages, and we have succeeded in reducing our hours and in- creasing our wages; but we still believe that the workers' part in life ought not to be merely that of hewers of wood and drawers of water. We believe that we can contribute something to efficient rail- way management. Only a few years ago railway companies said that our business was merely to do what we were told, We answered that by saying when the Government a few months ago indicated in their White Paper that they realised that the railwaymen ought to share in Imanagement, that "it is our intention to hold the Government to that promise, trand to see that was not camoufinge for the purpose of bluffing the public. I hope cur Government will understand clearly that on this matter the railway- men of our country are absolutely united and determined.
