BRITISH LABOR
 REALIZES NEED
 OF PRODUCTION

LONDON,- (By MaiD British la. bor leaders have begun a general movement to increase production by industrial workers Complaints have loon made for several months oi a 'scline in the amount of material produced This has been attributed to refusal of the workers in many in dustries to work full time.
 John Hodge, a member of parlla- nent and labor leader, expressed the belief that the adoption of the piece work system as already applied to the iron and steel industries, would aclJe the problem To this, he declared, many workmen were opposed.
 W. A. Appleton, secretary of the General Federation of Trade unions,
 Eed the men to refrain from politi- cal strikes, as the first move toward increased production.
 "POlitical strikes must either fail or end in revolution" he said. They are not against the capitalist but against the community. It ia not the capitalist that suffers but the people. The effect of such strikes is to decrease production and increase the price of commodities"
 M. Humberstone, a Sheffield leader said: "The surest way of increasing production is to give payment by re suits. Wherever possible it is car ried out in ours, the steel trade. In my opinion it is time we called q halt in regard to increase in wages be- cause it only means a further in crease in the cost of living The sooner we can make the workers realize that it is more to their in terest to decrease the cost of living than to increase wages, the better il will be for all concerned
 J. T. Brownlie, chairman of the cX- cutive council of the Amalgamated Society of Engineers, was the first trade unionist to advance the idea that workman must increase produc- tion Other leaders quickly endorsed his view, in the hope that scores of unauthorized strikes, fostered py a craze for shorter hours and higher wages, would cease and everybody would go back to work.
