the quality of the research work.
Important progress was made dur
ing the year in the recomparison Of
the Bureaus fundamental standards
of measurement and the condition OF
these is steadily improving.
The Annual Conference on Weights
and measures held on May 1926 was
largely attended and considered sew

the sale of bread by weight, speci-
fications and tolerances for liquid
measuring devices. and the methods
of weighing coal.
New specifications for incandescent
lamps purchased by the Government

the Bureau, as the old specifications
written number of years ago and
several times revised, were out OF

Belfast Shipyard Lockout Religious

(By Mr.. F. Lowe, British Labor

(By Mr.. F. Lowe, British Labor
Leader.)
The lockout of 5000 shipyard
workers at Belfast, Ireland, Sep
TENDER, 1920, was not caused by
any religious differences among
the workers, which the British con-
troled press led the public to be-
lieve, by giving it that twist, col
oring, Interpretation, and wide cir
culation.
Instead of any friction, Mr.. Lowe
shows, the men at work nobly sup
ported the locked out workers, and
proves that these men were ban
ished from their work because they
took an active part in the labor
movement, the Sim Fem and the
Labor Party, and their refusal to
uphold the Union Jack and attest
