CONSUMPTION A BLOW
London, Jan. 6.-Labor leaders
struck heavy blow against conscrip-
ton today. Resolution protesting ''in
the name of 100000 trades union
lists" against compulsory enlistment
was introduced by executive commit
tee when National Labor Congress
met in Central hall, Westminster.
Resolution was greeted with cries
of approval from all parts of the hall.
1t contained expressions of regret
that "the solidarity of the nation has
been gravely imperiled and industrial
and political liberty menaced by the
attitude of the conscriptionists."
900 delegates, representing 400
labor organizations, including most
powerful unions in Great Britain,
were at the meeting.
Preceding introduction of anti
resolution, executive
committee presented lengthy report,
emphasizing labor a "deep-rooted,
traditional and uncompromising hos
tility" toward conscription
The committee then offered sta
tistics to show that labor has more
than done its part in filling ranks of
British armies. Recruiting figures
from large industrial centers were
presented and with them reports of
various unions whose memberships
have been depleted through loss of
unionists who surrendered their
lives in Northern France.
It was generally expected that
labor delegates would pass resolu-
ton opposing CONSUMPTION, but gov
eminent had hopes that strong
trades union leaders would oppose
resolution in speeches that would win
over many workers to CONSUMPTION.
One resolution drafted called upon
resignation of Arthur Henderson,
labor member of Asquith ministry.
