British Food Chief
Urges Union Leaders
To Take Firm Stand

LONDON, Jan. 29-W Weakness and
sonal interests is charged against many
of the trades union leaders by Food
Controller George H. Roberts in an
interview printed in "The Mail' to-
day. He says that this is one of the
chief causes Of the "present anarchy"
in the industrial circles of GreateBrit-
ain.
Mr.. Roberts. who is a veteran labor
leader and who was recently Minister
of Labor. said
at is time that union leaders make
a definite and determined stand. If
subordinates refuse to honor their
leaders agreements, the leaders must
resign. Unfortunately, too many lead
crs are not free men.
Advice to Leaders
"rhc moder~ idea is that q trade
union official exists only to carry out
the bchests OF any temporary domi-
nant section. That is one Of the chief
causes of the present anarchy, and
often prevents officials from following
the dictates of their convictions.
81 know many union leaders who
are very seriously alarmed by the
probable effect of demands now being
made. regardless of the CORES sponding
need for an improved organization and
a higher efficiency among workers. But
their position of dependence prevents
them from taking lead which they
know to, be vital to the national in
terests.
"They know that anything detri-
mental to national interests must ulti-
mately mean disaster to the whole
working class, but they do no. dare
to speak their minds.
Fears Chaos Ahead
"There must be fight between rev
olution and reconstruction. If young
bloods are allowed to smash trades
union organizations, We will have to
face long period of industrial chaos
and long process of disllusionment.
"The end of this will find the workers
infinitely worse off than they are to-
day. Labor's demands can never be
complete realized without efficiency
Of production. ! greatly derlore the
weakness of those leaders who fail to
recognize their responsibility
Miners liz many of the collieries in
West Scotland have struck in SYM
pathy with the men who threw down
their tools at Clyde. This action was
taken in spite of their leaders pro-
tests.
A strike conference was held at
Glasgow on Tuesday and was attended
by delegates from all parts of Scot
land, as well as Grimsbv, Rugby and
London. 1t was decided to support
the strike committee and submit 10
the government proposals for a settle
ment on a basis of forty-hour week
1t was also decided that the strikers
would in no case approach the gov
ernment or their employers.
1t was announced at the meeting
that the strikers in the Clyde district
are estimated to number 10000.
BELFAST, Jan. 29.-There was much
rioting in the dark streets here last
night. Many plate glass windows in
stores along prominent streets were
smashed and some of the contents were
stolen. There was considerable wanton
throwing during the night, many
windows being broken. The police
frequently charged with their clubs
upon the rioters.
