REVISION NECESSARY
EIGHT-HOURS CONVENTION BRITAIN AND LABOUR British Official Wireless Reed. Noon . RUGBY, Sunday. In tlie course of yesterday’s meeting of the governing body of the International Labour Bureau at Geneva, Mr. Humbert Wolfe, the British Government delegate, declared that the British Government maintained its viewpoint that a revision of the Washington Eight-Hours’ Convention was necessary in order to facilitate ratification. He asked, however, that discussion of the British proposal should be adjourned until the May session, adding that the British Government had been the object of numerous unjust attacks, because it certainly had no intention of lessening the prerogatives of the working classes. The committee accordingly adjourned until the May session.
