FISHER INTERVIEWED.
LABOR PARTY'S OBJECTIVE. NOT UTOPIAN. By Telegraph..—Press Association. —CopyrigHt Received June 7. 9 a.m. London, Yesterday. The "Labour Leader" has published an interview with Mr Fisher, who decilned to specify what monopolies the Government had in mind to nationalies, if the referendum had been successful. He wanted Parliament to have the power to nationalise monopolies that were dangerous to the general well-being of the country. Asked whether collectivism was the ideal of his party, he said their platform did not go further than nationalising monopolies. The Governmentt attacked practical problems, he said, and were not concerned with Utopian ideals. He incidentally remarked that one check to the labour movement in Britain was the opposition to women's franchise. He failed to understand how advanced thinkers could justly refuse women the vote.
