LABOUR AND MURDER
(Auckland Star). The Trade Union Congress and the Parliamentary Labour Party have held a joint meeting to discuss the revival of the Red Terror in Russia, and the judicial murder of many of the Soviet’s iTclpless victims. The conclusions readied speak well for the courage and honesty of British Labour. Though many members of this gathering have made no secret of their sympathy for Sovietism, a, resolution was carried protesting emphatically against “the policy of meeting murder liv murder,’’ as harmful to the Russian people and tending to degrade the standards of civlisatioii. Wo congratulate Labour upon its plain speaking. At. the same time the* Council of the Trade I nion Congress refused a request from the Russian trade unions to join them in concerted action against the British Government’s policy towards the Soviet State. This vigorous rebuff, along with the well-timed protest against the revival of the Cheka horrors, suggests that Labour is learning at last.
