By Ed L. Keen.


Omitted Press staff correspondent.)
London, Oct. 9.-(By mail. Organ
ized labor first suggested how to deal
with the labor shortage in munitions in.
dustries. In November, 1914, the Am
algaslated Society of Engineers and
four other unions proposed that firms
engaged on private work be given gov
ernment work; firms working short
time. transfer surplus labor to buster
centers, skilled workmen be brought
from Canada and Australia; skilled
men who had enlisted be brought back
from the trenches.
This then appealed nor to the gov
ernment or to the employer. Six
months later, after the spring offensive
in Flanders failed through lack of mu-
nitions, it was adopted.
Following this expose of the empire Is
grave danger, all the skilled labor un-
ions in the United Kingdom agreed,
during the war, to allow unskilled work
ers to use lathes and other machines,
permitted women in munitions work,
withdrew opposition to the premium
bonus system and agreed not to restrict
or hamper the output.
Right after this Lloyd George said
the real cause Of the munitions short.
age was drink. He abandoned this
later when he saw that the facts were
against him, but much mischief had
been done. The British masses are not
thick-skinned. Their feelings were
hurt. To be called drunkards just aft
er what they had done was discourage
ing.
Next came the munitions act. Early
in the year labor suspected that Lloyd
George and the government desired in.
dustrial eonscription. The government
had refused to deal with the increased
living cost, increased profits, or the
claims Of the labor that the war ought
rot to be means of labor exploitation
by capital
The munitions act provided prohibi
ton of strikes; government control OF
certain establishments, now nearly
1000; guaranteed employers in con
trolled establishments the average OF
profits for the last two years plus one
fifth extra, and allowances for capital
expenditure; suspended all trade union
regulations in controlled establishments
and subjected workers to heavy fines
for striking, decreasing output, or go
ing to work elsewhere.
