INDUSTRIAL DEPRESSION.
DOLES SYSTEM CONDEMNED. LONDON. Aug. 19. The Federation of the General Workers’ Conference passed a resolution expressing dissatisfaction that the Government had failed to relieve industrial depression and unemployment, and condemning the adoption of the doles system instead of providing remunerative and beneficial work. Mr Ben Tillett said he would like to induce the world’s workers to down tools until the fianciers arranged' thendifferences and stabilised the exchanges. There was no chance of the cost of living falling. War in a viler form than the Great War was imminent.’lt would not necessarily be open war, but war by paralysis. Mrdynes was of the opinion that no international strike or industrial violence of any kind would serve to solve the problem, which must be approached from the class and party standpoint.— A. and N.Z. cable.
