BRITISH POLITICS.

WHAT LABOUR WILL DO. ENGLAND TO BE DEMOCRATISED ' INTERNATIONALISM THE CARDINAL DOCTRINE Received 11.35, LONDON,. Dec 19. Arthur Henderson, in an article in the Manchester Guardian, says under the new constitution the labour party will be found on national trade unions, Socialist societies, and local labour organisations. An industrial democracy rather than a State organisation of industry was the ultimate aim it had in view. Internationalism was the cardinal doctrine of the labour movement, but the party would not suffer its internationalism to negate the ideal of an Empire that had become an alliance of free peoples under democratic govermneTafs. The first step would be to make Britain a democratic State.
