LABOUR PARTY'S POSITION.
MR. MACDONALD ANSWERS CRITICS.
the owners
The Right Hon. J. Ramsay MacDonald, M.P., in the course of a speech to steel amelters and tinplate workers at Briton Ferry, said that he would like to know what the Government would do to the mine-owners if they refused its latest offer and the miners accepted it. Would it coerce the owners to accept the tribunal? If so, why did it not coerce fortnight age to accept a national agreement The Government that simply stood by and said, "The owners are well entrenched behind money and credit, and the men and women have stiff backs and determined mind; let the dispute go on, week after week, month after month,"
was deserving of the most. severe censure by the nation. In regard to coal prices, they were fred, not by what it cost to bring the coal to the customer's door with a reasonable profit, but by the person who sent it to the customer saying "How much can I get out of it?" That, said Mr. MacDonald, was an immoral price.
A questioner suggested that the Labour party was so ineffective in the face of the Government's huge majority that they should resign, and force a General Election

Mr. MacDonald replied that the ques tioner had arrived at an absurd con- clusion. If there was any virtue in be ing out of the House of Commons they were out, and they were working in the constituencies. Our trouble there is that we have not always had information that enabled as to be effective workers,' he said. As to having a General Election, the sooner they had one the. better, but it was of no use to talk about forcing one. If could force a General Election in six months it would be done. But it was the country which settled the composition of the present House of Com- mons. I am not going to play with politics or. with pledges," he continued; "I know foolish people are throwing that sort of stuff all over the country, acquiring a sort of self-satisfied heroism, and misleading you as to rational effec tive political methods, and also in regard to the ordinary commonsense of how to" handle the situation; in which we now

In reply to another question, Mr. Mac Donald said that it had been said of him that he had made a grovelling speech; but the day following that be received the thanks of the miners' representatives for that speech. He asked them not to be led away by sily talk about the part which the Labour party had played in the House of Commons. "We," he said, fight with our heads, and if"other" people had fought with their heads you would have been in a better position than you are now."

Never before was there anything like it, nor are its marvellous properties likely ever to be equalled in diseases arising from impare blood. It searches out and expels from the vital current every lurking trace of poisonous matter, curing blood and skin diesssor, scrofulous and glandular wallings, bad legs, abscess, uicars, eczema, gout, rheums- tis, goitre or Derbyshire Neck, sts. It improves she general health and quickly removes long-standing bronchitis, methios and hacking, training, spasmodic cough,
