Government Aims Obtain Consent
Both Parties Place Industry
Solid Basis
LONDON, May 3. ^—Premier
Baldwin told the house of commons
that a continuance of the govern
ment subsidy to the coal industry
was out of the question and declared
labor leaders ordering the strike
threatened the basis of the govern
ment which is nearer to proclaiming
a civil war than Great Britain has
been for centuries. He said the gov
ernment’s single aim has been to ob
tain the assent of both parties to the
recommendations of the royal coatn
%
mission with the view to place the
, coal industry on a seif su sorting ba
sis and said further that talking
would be wrong uniless the govern
ment had i mm derate and uncondi
tional withdrawal instructions for a
general strike. He said he became
convinced last night that A. Pugh,
chairman of the Trades Union con
gress, and his colleagues, no longer
controlled the situation within their
own ranks.

the government and traces union congress vanished at
1 o'clock in the rooming when it was officially announc
ed that si negotiations have failed The government im
mediately issued a statement refusing to resume them un
less the congress withdrew the general strike orders and
repudiated other oven acts including freedom of the
press. An obvious allusion *cas made to a strike of print
ers and operatives on the Daily Mail who objected to an
editorial sent then: to set and causing suspension of the
pjfatim in the morning. In view of the attitude of
the trades union congress and miners have taken up to
present their case does not sewn by the least probability
that they wSSL adopt the course the government demanded.
A general strike, consequently will go into effect at mid
night Monday. J. R. Thomas, secretary of the National
Union of Railway Men declared 'war has been declared.
It is a very sad state affairs. Nearly ,xOi>\wO work

In London there is a strange nonchalance concerning the
overshadowing of eterts and nobody seems to think there
is a possibility of a food shortage, There is no sign any
where of dying in of food or fbeL Afl Irving is normal and
activities centime undisturbed.
The Lonion citizen went about his pleasure as usual
and is not even eager to talk about the strike. The ap
proaching strike was the theme of most sermons today,
preacher? appealing for calmness, fairpiay and sacrifice
for the common good.
