Industrial Union Overseas

Industrial unionism is beginning to ap-
pear in Great Britain, press dispatches say
The Northumberland Fireman's Association
and the Northumber Mining Mechanics
Union have both voted to enter the British
Miners Federation. A scheme for the
federation of the trade unions connected
with the building industry, with view to
forming an organization with direct execu-
tive control and power in all building
trade matters is now being balloted upon.
