The question ir raised," Mr. Chur- chill said, "whether, for instance, a handful of wirepullers, in virtue of some resolution passed on a card vote, without any guarantees that the opinion of their constituents has been properly obtained, should have the power to lay an interdict on all the industries of the country, and to chal-1 lenge, the sovereign right of Parlia ment and the State itself. Behind this again lie questions of the influences which actuate these wirepullers, br whether they themselves are not mani- pulated and wirepulled from outride. this island altogether, and are pursuing aims which are in no way related to the welfare of the British people.

Beeing It Through,

"I have every hope and belief that we shall reach a lasting and an honourable settlement," stated Mr. Churchill, and that we shall come through our troubles and be the stronger for having sur mounted them.

There is no reason why the lifetime. of this Parliament should not see a strong revival in British trade and industry, should not see the hideous unemployment figure, making allow ances for altered circumstances, fall to ...the pre-war level. There is no reason why the taxes should not be reduced. We know for certain now that 600,000 or 700,000 houses will be built. We know for certain, that every wife of an insured man throughout the land has La provision made for her in the event of his deathữ" We know that the Em- pire is being steadily consolidated and developed, and we have every hope that after these troubles are over and wis dom has come with tribulation, a better and a brighter day will dawn."

And Ejections,

Though the meeting was "ticket" one and police were present in force there were some interruptions Mr. Churchill's reference to the coal dispute as a strike was challenged with cries of "Lock-out." His raference to the opening of negotia tions with the employers was interrupted by cries from miners at the back of the hall of We have been compelled by starvation. It was not until three men. were ejected by the police that silence was restored and Mr. Churchill was able to conclude his speech.
