apart from the fact that the logs of such
trees would be much too large for burn

that would be too expensive. 1t is ascer-
tanned that only in places where two
trees grow so. closely together as to i'm,

has on hand a large supply of coal which
accounts for the non-imDortation of this
article of fuel of late and it is assured
that the use of wood or trees as c~ircuIat-
ed is confined to bush cut down from

founded or founded on inaccurate know
ledge of facts. 1t is learned on good aU-
thority that the West Indian Sugar Fac
tory has employees whose duty it is to
kin worms which destroy trees, and that
the st. Croix Sugar Factory also gives
its attention to the preservation of its
trees from destruction by worms. This
being the case it would be idiocy to ex-
pend effort TO save trees which were
destined to fall by the AXE. The mate
rial which has been seen carted To the

today, there appeared to be confidence
that the Premier would Immediately take
up the question on his return to London
tomorrow. Mr.. Tillett, labour member
Of Parliament and ex. General Sec
rotary of the Dockers Union, speaking at
Bristol declared there were so, 0O0 dock
ers in the Kingdom working only three
days a week with average earnings Of
under two po"nds weekly This was proof
of the casualties Of dock labOur and gave
them an interchangeable taste for re-
form. Sir Percy States Deputy Chair
man of the Cunard Steamship Company
in a statement to the press tonight on
responsibility. revealed that the Ministry
of Labour at the final conference on
Saturday made a proposal, the nature
Of which he practically was not at
liberty to disclose. The employers asked
time to consider and discuss this vi h
their constituents, but the representa-
tiyes of the Dock Workers refused to
allow time for consultation and the con-
ference broke up. The Employers
Association at Ii liverpool, Newcastle and
other ports are making the same offer
as made by the London employers,
which was increase Of one shilling daily,
besides restoration Of the piece work
rates in June 1922. Secretary Bevin. ad-
dressing a lockers meeting in East Lon
don tonight referred to this offer by the
employers and to the a|c,ionof the Blue
Ticket Union. He characterized the
offer of a shil Ing advance as a shilling
for Judas and hoped that nobody would
take this blood money. He declared
that the employers knew a fortnight ago
that the Blue Union would not strike
and the employer by offering this Judas
money were hoping to shatter TIE Nation
al A. reement. London thus far has
been the bugbear and the cause of all
the trouble. Eighty percent Of the pro-

would be inaugurated tomorrow.
