POSTAL SERVANTS AND STATE.
KECIPROCAL OBLIGATIONS. By Telegraph.—l'res: Association.--Copyright Received September 30, 1.10 a.m. London, Yesterday. Mr Herbert Samuel, PostmasterGeneral, in receiving a deputation from the national committee of the Postal and Telegraph Association, and reserving his decision until he had consulted his colleagues regarding a fresh inquiry into service conditions, strongly warned a small irresponsible minority against raising threats of a postal strike, Pubilc opinion would require any Postmaster - General, whatever his party, to take steps to render a recurrence impossible, even if it might intensify a temporary dislocation. In the event of a strike a civil servant was in a different position, owing to his higher degree of security of tenure. Hence the reciprocal obligation not to withdraw his labour from the State.
