Strikes Hit Taxpayer,
Says Lloyd George

London. Sept. 2s.--Premier Lloyd
George, telegraphing his regrets that
he would DO unable to attend the SOL
diers' celebration at Carnarvon. says;
In long and varied experience
can recall no strike entered into so
lightly. with so little Justification and
such entire disregard for public In
terest. The strike is not one In which
IL can be contended that tho workers
are seeking to wiring fair wages from
harsh employers. whose profits are be-
lieved to be excessive. In this case the
railwaymen are dealing direct with the
community.
Running at Loss.
"The state Is now running the rail-
ways at a loss. due in the main to the
enormous increase made In the wages
of the railway workers since the be-
ginning OF the war; and also to tho
great reduction In the hours Of labor,
Thu loss is being borne by the general
taxpayer, and will soon have to DO
passed on to the general public In the
form of Increased fares and charges.
On its merits, the strike is inexplicable.
1.-THE dispute Is about something
which cannot possibly come into OPP
Grafton until next year; yet the ma
ton is thrown into the dislocation Of
hurried strike without even weeks
warning"
Unionists Opposed.
Pointing out that the men declined
even to discuss the governments offer
to consider any particular injustice,
the premier declares:
IT am convinced that the vast ma
jority of the trade unionists Of the land
are opposed to this anarchist conspir-'
acy, They can see the ruin and mis-
cry It has brought In other lands. and
their common sense has hitherto
guarded their organizations against
the control Of these intriguers. These
men have made many efforts to get
hold Of the levers Of trade unionism;
so far, all their endeavors have ended
in failure.
"There is no more patriotic body Of
men in this country than the railway
men and their conduct during the war
demonstrated that fact. When they
realize that they are not fighting for
fair conditions for labor Of their class,
but are being used by extremists for
sinister purposes, their common sense
will resume it's sway and save the
country yet and their families from
disaster.
Accept Challenge.
Meanwhile the interests of the
nation and government have no al
tentative but to accept the challenge
| thrown down to society as q whole.
They intend to meet this blow at the
public veal with all the resources at
! the disposal Of the state and they look
! to the nation, without distinction of
class, for it affects everybody, cheer
fully to bear the privations which viii
result from this indefensive strike and
give their aid to maintaining the fab
ric of social order upon which the
prosperity Of this country depends"
In the beginning of his message Mr..
Lloyd George says:
II have been constantly criticised
as too extreme a partisan Of those
who are struggling for better condi-
TONS"
