BRITISH COTTON DISPUTE
LANCASHIRE JUDGE TO ARBITRATE British Official Wireless RUGBY, Sunday. Sir Rikby Swift, who is to be the chairman of the Court of Arbitration set up to investigate the Lancashire cotton dispute, is a Judge of the King's Bench Division. He is a Lancashire man and has an intimate knowledge of the cotton industry. In a message about the recent agreement to refer the dispute to arbitration, the Prime Minister, Mr. Ramsay MacDonald, expressed the hope that the award of the Court would be given without undue delay and be loyally accepted by both sides. He said he believed the industry required far more co-operative organisation. The inquiry which the Government had just arranged must also be pushed ahead as quickly as possible.
