left more than 100000 workers idle.
Prime Minister Ramsay Macdonald
flew here today from his vacation place
at Lossiemouth and held conferences

Although no official announcement
shed any light on what was accom-
plished d, 1t was understood in we'll

the principle Of arbitration and that
the way was paved for q joint meeting
in Manchester early next week. possibly
on Wednesday. The belief was ex-
pressed In some optimistic quarters that
the mills would be working again by
the end Of next week
1t was understood that the Govern
