NAZI METHODS
ADOPTION IN COMBATANT COUNTRIES ALLEGED BY MINERS’ LEADER. CONDITIONS OF INDUSTRY • IN BRITAIN. (By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright) (Received This Day, 12.30 p.m.) LONDON. March 28. Mr Arthur Horner, in his presidential address to the South Wales Miners’ Federation annual meeting at Cardiff, said: “The ruling classes in all the combatant countries are more and more resorting to Nazi or totalitarian methods. The rapidity with which Nazi methods are being applied here must exercise the minds of .thoughtful trade unionists.” Referring to the drift of men from mining, he said the industry was not producing the amount of coal being consumed, and therefore was eating into stocks, threatening serious consequences for industry and a disastrous result . for the people next winter. Miners who had long been unable to get employment were leaving their jobs at the rate of two thousand a month to take up work in other industries. That was a consequence of low wages and poor conditions in the mining industry.
