THE OSBORNE .HDGMKNT. By Cable—Press Association Copyright. Received 2, 5.5 p.m. London, January 31. Mr. Bomir Law agreed that the Osborne judgment placed trades nii'ons in an invidious position. It was only right they should have liberty to engage ill polities. It was untrue (bat the I uionists opposed trade unions. The lattel'S' ell'orts in the House of Commons to improve social conditions and wages had been a lamentable failure. It was bad that the Socialists had captured the organisations of the trade unions, which could only be successful if the men acted as a solid union. Owing to differences of political views among members it was not desirable that trades unions should be identified with any one party.
Sir Ruflis Isaacs denied that the Labor Party had not secured an improvement iu wages and conditions.
