LONDON. April 2.-The critical
state of British industry is indicate ted
by the gravity of the mining situa-
Con. There is virtually a complete
stoppage of work. The attack on
wages has developed more, slowly
in this country than in the United
States and the mining crisis is the
first untoward event 1t may. how
ever. be but a fprerunner of similar
attack develops.
of the mining strike last November
the miners and owners were to pre-
pare a scheme for the reSu "tion OF
wages on a national basis by March
81. The employers. with the relin-
duishment of control by the govern
ment. are proposing now regula-
tion of wages by districts instead OF
nationally. The acceptance of this
scheme by the miners would seri-
ously REFUGE the Influence OF the
Miners Federation. which is the
most powerful single industrial or
ganization in the country.
Fighting Lower Standard Of Living
Moreover. the owners scheme III
volved a serious reduction in wages
which would be general throughout
the industry and would ioacr tns
miners standard of living to beio"
the pre-war STANDARD. Obviously the
miners will not Willingly accept sucf
drastic change. If their resistance
is broken, however. and the terms
are imposed, the prospects OF futur.
peace in the mining industry would
be dismal. indeed.

TOXIC. April 2.-The japanese gov
ernment. in publishing today the cor
respondence relating to the interna-
tional consortium for financing China,
attached a statement that Japan had
always tried to secure the return of
the American group to the negotia-
tions and, therefore. welcomed the
American proposal Of 1919 for .re for
nation Of a four-power consortium,
comprising Great Britain, France. the
United States and Japan. -
With reference to Japan's reserva-
tions regarding the exclusion of Man
churia and Mongolia from the scope
of the consortium, the government
statement says it is regrettable to
hear discussions based apparently on
misunderstandings of the Japanese
proposals, the object Of which were
merely to secure anew a definite un-
derstanding Of Japan's special and
legitimate claims.
Desire to Exclude Denied.
The reservations were not actuated
by any desire to exclude completely
the activities Of other powers in the
two countries. the statement asserts.
Japan only desiring to insure her ma
tional defense and the security Of her
economic life
The statement declares it sometimes
has been alleged that Japan's insist
ence on the reservations concerning
Manchuria and Mongolia were due to
her policy of aggression, and that,
therefore, she delayed the formation
of the consortium. but this allegation,
the government says. is without
foundation.
Not Result Of Politics.
The demand for assuring the right
OF self-preseryation and meeting the
requirements of our national defense
and economic existence represents a
serious national sentiment which
should not be regarded as emanatinE
from the political ambition of a small
section of the people," the statement
declares.
The government in conclusion SAYS
1t is convinced Japan may reply. in the
exigencies Of any situation that NAV
arise, on the spirit Of mutual trust
and friendship of the powers con-
cerned, who understand Japan,s real

chancellor Makes Statement.
Long statements were sent out to-
Day for publication by the new chan
cellor of the exchequer, Sir Robert
soH seevenson Horne; in behalf of the
son and Frank Hodges for the miners.
Th. T]nhssiiying the opposing attitudes.
me miners representatives accuse
the government of heedlessIy preciui-
latlng the crisis by premature re-
moval OF control over the industry.
The chancellor ignores this point
ana bases his statement upon-tbe
impossibility of asking taxpayers to
shoulder further burdens in order to
supsldlze the coal industry. or of
submitting to intimidation aimed at
forcing the government to agree to
such subsidy.
Alfred Bigland, coalition unionist
for Birkenhead. who was a member
of the grand committee of. the house
of commons on the ''decontrol" bill,
makes the suggestion that the right
!, solution for the dispute is to rescind
this bill and make the time limit for
control May 80. instead of March 81.
He infers that the committee agreed
, to the earlier date because the gov
ernment seemed persuaded that the
mine owners would suggest a scale
OF wa ges acceptable to the miners
He admits that postponement of the
decontrol measure would cost the
country f10,000.000, but considers this
necessary in order to give more am
pie time for discussion and arrange
ments of the wage question and the
education of the miners to the real
industrial position at home and
abroad.
This suggest. on from a unionist,
who is free from suspicion of undue
sympathy with the miners, is re-
garded as significant.
