Left wing leaders in the Long- shoremen's Union are roaring their disapproval of the arbitration resolution.
The Australian, Harris Bridgės, head of the Strike Committee. de- clares the resolution was "railroad- et through," and alleges many "unofficial" delegates „slipped into the conference during the interval before the vote was taken.
The longshoremen are described as resolutely opposed to arbitration en their claim of control of their own hiring halls. Bridges Insists that the Strike Committee egunot call' off the strike anyway, but can only recommend such action,

London, July 18
A considerable increase in the activity of the world's tin plate Industry is believed by the Finan- cial Times to be the outcomo of the signing of an International agreement regulating quotas and prices.
Representatives of the industry from Franco, Italy, Germany, the United States, and South Walos took two months to arrive at the scheme. The principal features, emerging from the highly com- plicated details yet to be publish. ed, are, firstly, the establishment of a basic price of 18 shillings. which compares to the present price of 17 shlllings pence in Wales and, secondly, the allot- mont of quotas for the signatory countries. A third point is the decision to arrango a scheme for International C.L.F, pricas.---Router,
