BRITISH TARIFF
PROPOSED WOOL DUTIES.
LONDON, Deo 7
There is much comment in the Lobbies on the West Riding Labour Commoners’ decisions to oppose the safeuarding of wool manufactures. Mr W. Mackinder (Labour, Shipley, Yorkshire) suggests that the Executives of the Labour Party and Trade Union Congress should examine the Trade Unions’ views.
The Daily Herald editorially supports this suggestion. “To us,” it says, “ safeguarding is a mere gamble, suiting the employers of certain industries and promising nothing iafr the workers in the shape of higher real wages, better conditions, or greater security. Some Labour members think differently. The time lias come to thrash out their differences. In view of tho General Election thero must not I>e dubiety on a question which the Tories will seek to make ono of firstclass importance.”
