UNEMPLOYED PROBLEM IN
ENGLAND IS GRAVE ISSUE
LONDON, Feb. 1—Labor leaders ,
are demanding urgent legislation to |
solve in some way the problem of
unemployment in Great Britain.
Warnings have been given of a ;
serious social or industrial upheaval,1
of some kind of startling "direct
action” unless the British govern
ment acts promptly.
“If nothing is done within the
next few weeks,” said J. R. Clynes,
member of parliament, recently to
Dr. Macnamara, minister of labor,;
in the course of a discussion with |
labor leaders, “a situation may do-!
velop that will threaten the life!
of the state itself.”
There is said to be an ugly temper
among many of the million or more
unemployed over what they regard
as dilatoriness on the part of local
and governmental authorities in tak
ing steps to meet the situation ade
quately. About one hundred thous
and of the million idle men, are in
, London.
Homeless and destitute, they have
seized about thirty suburban public
libraries, baths and assembly halls.
[ From some of these they have been
forcibly ejected by the police and
this has caused more ill-feeling.
Delegates from employed com
mittees in a score or more of Lon
don boroughs have recently formed
a central council, which is holding
secret meetings at which “direct ac
tion’’ is planned.
What form this direct action w;U
take is not divulged by the leaders,
who proclaim their intention to act
independently of the Labor party or
trades unions; but D.ennis Jennett,
the chairman of the committee, ha
informed The Associated Press rep
resentative they will be of a start
ling nature.
It is claimed that seventy-five
per cent of the London unemployed
are ex-service men. They say they
are not out for loot but that they
want work provided for them at
once, and they also want worker
admitted to control of all enter
prises.
APPEAL IS DISMISSED
