merit reassembled today.
With 10(\000 workers nn strike,
and the possibility that half a mil-
lion, in the buildings lrad«M muy
be added to thlK number labor un-
rest presents perhaps thr most
serious ^difficulty, but others in-
clude :
1. Certainty of a sharp labor at-
tack on thr Government's policy
regarding housing and rents, a
subject on which two recent bye-
(dectloris have already gone to la-
bor.
2. A fierce attack impending on
the budget which Stanley Baldwin
wttt Introduce next Mouthry, wTHr
drniandH for decreased income tax-
ation and less tax on beer.
3. Thr housing bill, providing for
subsidirs <>n certain types of dwell-
ings will be introduced after the
budget and wtH be the mtbjret- of
seve re ’J^irRamentary TuuhrhJ^flng.
1 The agricultural crisis, exem-
plified by strikes of farm handH in
Norfolk and Suffolk, will contri-
bute to th** Government's unhappi-
ness.
Besides the farm strike and that
threatened in the building trades,
pottery workers, railway workers,
jute workers, trawlermen, ships
firemen and miners are among the
groups striking oY likely to be nut
within a fortnight. The approach-
ing labor crisis is such a one as
Lloyd George frecjuently
during his r*‘Ki>nc; H will
tut** an add test of
real strength.
