COTTON DISPUTE
RESUMPTION OE NEGOTIATIONS
(British Official Wireless.)
(Received this dav at 11 a.m.) RUGBY, August 15.
Meetings, which it is hoped will lead to resumption of negotiations be-, tween the parties in the cotton trade dispute, were held at Manchester today). They were the result of an interview between the Prime Minister and the employers at "Edinburgh, during the week-end, when Mr MacDonald, it is understood, urged the desirability of submitting the case to arbitration.
At noon a committee cdf Cotton Spinners and. Manufacturers Association met. Sir Horace Wilson (permanent secretary of the Ministry of Labour) was present. 1 The meeting was adjourned when it became known that a committee of the Federation of Master Cotton Spinners Associations had been called together for this afternoon. It is expected these two sections of the employers will meet later in consultation with a view to joint action. Part of the business at each meeting dealt with the question of arbitration, and reports were given of the interview with Mr MacDonald.
