A statement was issued last night
by the Ministry OF Labor in reference
10 demands made by unofficial con-
fcpncca Of London members OF tho

unions. These demands included
Governmental Intervention in tho
various labor disputes and the intro
duction Of legislation in Parliament
establishing forty hours as the legal
working week.
The statement points out that no
communication In support OF these
demands has been received from the
executive officers Of any OF the unions
involved. on the contrary, the state
mcnt says, 1t IL understood that the
executives are opposed to the action
suggested" 1t declares that under
