THOUGHTS FOR THE TIMES.
Industrial RunkauyiAClES. “ Whether we like it or not, Capital and Labour in times of dispute are arrayed in opposite camps, and the decisions width have to he made will tend to become the decisions of the respective headquarters. '.Most of the employers’ organisations have long ago had that power reposed in their executive bodies, and sooner or later the trade union movement will he forced by the exigencies of circumstances to do the same. If the evolution of the movement continues in the direction in which it now appears to he travelling, and the large scale dispute becomes the rule, frequent consultation with the members by means of the referendum or tin* ballot vote during times of stress would he found impracticable, and would lead to irritation and disastrous delays.”—Mr Walter Citrine in the “ Labour Magazine.” ■
