Another development to-day is the announcement that- the Bavin Government may take over a number of coalmines in the event of Air Hibble’s activities proving abortive, and that the miners will be reopened; but whether by the union or by free labour iis not yet disclosed.
Air Bavin stated that a number of industries were in a parlous condition, and the mines must be opened very soon to avert the disaster which threatened them.
