"Whilst realising that a strike is a valuable weapon for well-organised industriesdn key,positions, we are:of the opinion that .. strike : action . by relief workers is doomed to failure, and is advantageous only to our opponents. "We, therefore, refuse, to have any further . dealings;..with the so-called United Front, as we consider its attempt to cause a strike and .to alter its constitution: and secretariat, without consent of the bodies affiliated, to be a breach of the agreement that brought us together and likely to destroy possible co-operation." .. ■ ; ■
