LONDON, Sept. 5.-Unable to
answer the charges of leaders of
the British minority movement and
of the Communist unionists. the Of
ficials of the Trade Union Congress,
meeting at Swonsen, Wales, yester
day demanded and forced thru a
resolution excluding the progress
sive leaders from PARTICIPATION in
the further proceedings of the con-
gress.
The move had two-fold ASPECT de-
signed, on one hand, at silencing
criticism of the officialdom and, on
the other, to direct public attention
away from the congress officials
and towards the Communists and
minority members as responsible for
the tremendous decrease in union
membership during the last year.
Figures disclosing the falling off
in members continue to point to the
appalling decline of rank and file
confidence in the officialdom as the
leaders while totals continue to re-
veal wider losses and the progress
sive consciousness of the British
workingman that the present con-
gress heads are bent on leading him
to the destruction Of the trade union
movement.
Loss of 100000 members was
again cited today, this time by j. H.
Thomas, former cabinet minister,
and now secretary of the National
Union of Railway Men. Minority
leaders taunted the officials from
the floor on the increasing lack of
confidence betrayed in their lead
ership by the decrease totals.
The most significant action of the
congress, after the exclusion of the
progressives and Communists, was
the stifling of a plan for the for
nation of a Government Workers
Union, comprising workers from the
Woolwich arsenal, which John H.
Thomas quashed before it could
gain momentum.
