BETTER FEELING SHOWN
CAPITAL AND LABOUR FUTILE STRIKES AND LOCK-OUTS (United Service) LONDON, Saturday. Lord Melchett, formerly. Sir Alfred Mond, and Mr. Ben Tillett , Labour leader, sat side by side on the platform at a Rotarians’ conference called to discuss industrial reorganisation and relations in the light of the MondTurner conference. Lord Melchett said the relations between Capital and Labour in England had been better organised and carried on with better feeling, more commonsense and ftiore humanity than in any country he knew. The Mond-Turner conference was important because both parties to it recognised that an amelioration of living conditions could only result in industrial prosperity. Whatever happened now, the participants in that conference would feel they had rendered their country service. They had entered into the conference with a common feeling of brotherhood. Mr. Tillett referred to the futility of strikes and lock-outs. He said he hoped future controversies in the Labour Party would not be described as “out for mischief, destruction and revolution.”
