TRADE UNIONS BAD YEAR. MR. W. A. APPLETON ON LOSS OF MEMBERS.

A further ducting in membership and receipts is recorded in the annual report of the Genoral Federation of Trade Unions, which was issued ecently? The membership is now 830,316, as compared with 90,050 in 1994 and 1,383,058 in 1999 Receipts show a dourosce of £3,91 as compared with last year, but expenditure, also diminished. Mr. W. A. Appleton, the general sreretary, makes the comment that the total federation benefit paid up to the present time is £1,138,796, which with the reserve fund of £149,942 makes an aggregate of £1,288,735 of benefits paid: or in hand, which is £9,197 more than the total contributions and entrance fees paid by alinted societies No other trade union, organisation in this or in any other country, he says, can show such good results or offer such good cause for jealous antagonism.

Commenting on the fact that the fede- ration has not had a successful year, Mr. Appleton writes that, like all trade union organisations, it has suffered lows in membership. The greatest of these losses arise from amalgamation and loss of membership in the unions themselves, and some arise from the poverty; of unions.... Hon.

The federation, the report states, has sought to assist in the intelligent discus sion of problems and circumstances affect- ing trade and prices. The facts concern- ing these are not too generally under- stood, nor are the deductions from the facts always pleasant. In less strenuous times a little ignorance and a little dis inclination to accept logical deduction did not appear to threaten such serious consequences To-day neither men women who think connectedly will hesi tate to denounce the policy of luisses faire as applied to production, to trady, and to prices. If things were well, some- thing might be urged in favour of lear- ing thespalone, but they are not well when 12 per cent. of the presumably employable population are unemployed and 4.01 per cent. of the inhabitants are in receipt of soche form of public relief. Charity, whether it is public or private, is neither desirable nor desired. Only s very small percentage of the people of this country have reached that pitch

of eliciting the truth about trade or of THE ALLAHABAD BÄNK, LTD., providing remunerative employment.

Referring to the stabilisation of curren. cies, Mr. Appleton says that the return. of the pound sterling should cheapen food and raw materials imported from coun tries where the pound has been at a dis sount; but it would be unwise to imagine that a return to the gold standard must. necessarily result in an immediate or complete solution of the problems of trade | and unemployment. It is only one step. A reduction in rates and taxes offers an other step. Economists know that high taxes, high prices, and actually high wagra seldom go hand in hand. Even if they do come together for a period, that period must be short. High rates and taxes going on to costa of production, and ultimately on to selling prices, are enemies to trade, particularly oversea trade They are consequently enemies to continuous employment and to really good wages.
