that is to say, workers and employers. who have no differences and only ask to be allowed to live and labour in peace. In the case of the cost strike over a million miners were directly involved; and it seems probable from the wage statements that have been published that they would have accepted the compromise suggested by the Coal Commission and remained at their jobs it their leaders had encouraged them to do so. But no such advice was given. The leaders
preached war when they might have coun- selled peace.
What seems most desir- able, therefore, is the education of the
workers so that they may think for them selves and understand the facts which

An article which throws a clear light on some of the ill consequences of the coal strike appeared in the September evice issued from the, head offices of the Westminster Bank in London. The writer says with perfect accuracy "it is obviously, in the interests of all concerned that the evil effects of modern large acale industrial conflicts should be widely realised."

Fancy or evening dress was optional, but many favoured the former

With regard to the railways, expert calculation puts the loss from diminished traffic chiefly on the goods side at £15,000,000. In addition to the loss of wages to the miners, it is estimated that the loss to other workers thrown out, of employment owing to the coal-stoppage (not counting those in the iron and steel trade) amounted to £3,000,000. Some of this has been transferred from the workers to the Unemployment Insurance Fund, but when all allowances have been made, it seems fairly clear that in the four months to the beginning of Septem ber the wage earners of Great Britain received £83,000,000 less in wages than they would have done had the Report of the Coal Commission been accepted by both sides last April, whereby the coal stoppage with all its wastage and suffer ing would have been averted.
