LONDON DRIVERS STRIKE
Motor Cab Men Will Quit Be-
cause of Petrol Prices.
fBv Cable n The Tribune. I

London, Dec. 31.-A conference be
tween representatives Of the London
Motor Cab Proprietors' Association
and the London Cab Drivers Trade
Union at the Board OF Trade, yester-
day. broke up without an agreement as
to the price 10 be paid by drivers for
petrol. II is stated, therefore, that
about 1000 cabs will not be taken out
tomorrow.
The cause OF the trouble is the great
increase in the price Of petrol. Under
the award OF March last, by which the
strike was settled, the men were TO pay
II cents a gallon. The proprietors pro-
pose TO increase the price tomorrow to
% cents. Yesterday the men offered
II cents, but the proprietors refused
tn accept less than 26 cents.
About 1000 men will remain at work
unless they go out in sympathy with
the others.

A. B0NAR LAW. PIQUED.
THREATENS TO RESIGN
Displeased at Growing Revolt of
Unionist Press Against
Food Tax Policy.
IRN Cahlc 10 The Trlhnne !

London. Dec. Sit is understood
that Andrew Bonar Law has threatened
10 resign i'm consequence of the grow
ing revolt Of the Unionist press against
the food tax policy laid down by him at
Ashton. He is in state OF panic
caused by this development.
There is dissension in the Opposition
ranks. \ hurried conference OF Union
list leaders was held in the House OF
Commons Yesterday. and IL is stated IN
an apparently inspired communication
that the Ashton policy is 10 remain.

sidcration. and IL still regarded as like
~ t. secure the largest amount OF sup
port among the Unionists.
Differences Of opinion there must he

ences OF opinion exist on many subjects
'mong the supporters of the govern
ment Some suggestions urged on the
Unionist leaders would. however. I'm
their opinion lead If adopted TO a
definite. and disastrous split. Ii is add
ed that the Unionist leaders are in full
accord. and that no question whatever
Of personal rivalry enters into the mat
ter. There is no likelihood of calling a
party meeting for the present.
1t is believed that a general recon-
citation is being sought on what may
be called Tho Daily Telegraph's" lines
of keeping tariff reform in the back
ground at the next general election and
lighting only on the present govern
ments record. Then. in the event of
a Unionist victory. there will be a con-
ference with the oversee dominions,
and another general election is re-
garded as probable in the near future.
The opposition leader will take the
opportunity OF delivering another
speech. In which he will reply in de-
tail 10 his critics.
