CONCILIATION AND ARBITRATION. Received 5, 11.15 p.m. London, September 5. At the Newport Congress, Ben Tillet's motion, suggesting drastic action with reference to the forms of arbitration and conciliation between employers and workers in each trade, opened a discussion on compulsory arbitration. Mr. Harvey Brace, a member of the House of Commons, strongly opposed abandoning the strike weapon. Mr. Havelock Wilson announced his conversion to arbitration, since investigating the system in Australia and New Zealand. Its introduction would be greatly to the advantage of the British worker. He found New Zealand's judge a, little bit prejudiced, but the Australian judge gained almost everybody's confidence. The debate was adjourned.
