sumers have laid in supplies. Unless the
strike is unduly prolonged or the railway
men decide to join the miners, it is not
expected the country will suffer severely.
Public sympathy appears to be entirely
with the government. Many people con-
cede that the miners are entitled to an
increase in wages by virtue of the in
creased cost of living, but contend the
men should have accepted the government
offer to submit the matter to an independ-
ent tribunal. There is no doubt negOtia-
tions will continue during the strike and
the hope is expressed that something in
the nature of a settlement may come from
the re-assembling of parliament next
Tuesday.
The possibility Of railway tie-up has
already caused certain amount of
panic; many travellers are arranging to
return home Immediately.
1t is unoficially stated that although
there is a thFee-mOnths' supply of coal
on hand, it will be necessary to institute
rigid economy. 1t is probable petrol and
perishable fOodstuffs will be carried on
passenger trains.
The prospect of the railway men strik-
ing in sympathy with the miners is viewed
with grave concern in government cir
cIes. Plans made by the ministry of
food for use if the trouble extends are
on a more comprehensive scale than
during last years coal strike. The
