LONDON, May with the gem
! cral strike at the end of SO hours
gradually showing signs of yielding
to the pitilcss opposition of the gov
ernment, the United Press was au-
thoritativcly Informed that j. H.
Thomas and Premier Baldwin will
meet today in private in renewed
effort to find basis Of the indus
trial peace.
II was understood that Baldwin
aud Thomas meeting will be unostcn-
tatious and of the most private char
actcr, in order not to attract attcn-
tion or raise false hopes.
The Laboritc ovorturcs for con-
ference between Thomas and Bald
win represent the first tangible sign
of cracking Of the strikers refusal
to negotiation.
1t is understood that the trades
union council sanctioned Thomas ;
action. but reserved the right to dis
own or reject any of his proposals
or any results which might come
from the proposed meeting.
Not to Be Binding
If the conference takes place,
Thomas must be considered us Il
volunteer mediator whose influence
in labor circles is tremendous, but
who cannot bind the strikers nor
their leaders by his action.

the strike us the outstanding British
LabOrite.
As Thomas moved for peace, Brit
ain slowly but surely, and at the
cost of tremendous effort, WAS
emerging triumphant from the clutch
Of the strike octopus.
At first the country had been
poweress.
Volunteers Effective
The government S all embracing
system of alleViation and the hearty
response to the call for volunteers,
was reflected primarily in the hour
ly enlargement of train service and
the extension of food distribution.
The government communique at
noon announced that there were no
signs of panic; that an attempt had
been made to interfere with the
bus service in Nottingham but that
the situation was giving no anxiety.
approximately 100000 copies of
the British Gazette, official govern
ment newspaper. had been distribut-
ed throughout England and addition
al copies were being printed.
Twelve to II provincial newspap-
erS were being published. including
two afternoon papers. The others
are wceklics.
In the North Midlands 80 per cent
Of the Midland railway clerks were
working. \ small section of the
London subway was running and six
minute service was expected by to-
morrow. The subways have recciv-
cd 300 volunteer workers, as many
as they can train.
At Rotterdam. near Manchester,
there was an ineffective attempt to
stop the buses.
