COAL CRISIS.
(Continued from Page 1)
the Prime Minister's conduct dur ing the coal dispute. A knew that from the beginning to the end his. patience had been inexhaustible, although severely tried.
Reppdiating the accusation that the Government had done nothing, he pointed out that, apart from the Bili dealing with the re-organian- tion of the coal industry the Government was considering other steps and doing what it could to "put them Torward. Come possibly might require legislation later, if there was any chance of a settle- ment by that means. Whatever of re-organisation. or the financial anyone might think about the value
effect which it would have upon the industry, he did not believe that its much difference in the cost of a ton effect would be so great as to make of coal. The effects of re-organisa- to could not be felt for some con- siderable time.
They had the immediate situation
to confrent. And that was what" they were confronting to-day with the Eight-Hours. Bill. It was per. fectly plain that the object of the Bill was to enable those engaged in! the industry to see what was pos- sible if an eight-hours day was worked in the way of wages and of cheaper production to enable this country to recover the a markets which had been. loat. What were the alternatives to the Government's proposals? One was a continuance of the subsidy. The country would not allow the Government to spend more than £3,000,000 to assist in Hehe transition period after a settle- to ment. Other alternatives were a severe eut in wages and the closing of more than half the pits in the country. The fourth course was the Government's present proposai of permission for a longer working day, which would open up opper- tunities for negotiations, and which gave free choice to free men.
