While Great Britain has what
it virtually a labor draft law that
country hat not been free from
strikes by any means. The recent
work stoppage in coal nines
which kept 90,000 workers out of
the pita, has been ended with the
resumption' of operations, but it
was terminated not by force but
by the appeals of government and
union officials. The strikes there
are . not regular strikes called by
union leaders,' but cessation of
work by the men themselves.
' Part of the trouble in Great
Britain is' worker fatigue. For
nearly. 'five years workers have
been on the Job at the hardest
kind of labor, for long work

often with civilian defense duties
in addition. The strain has had its
effect naturally, and the remark'
able thing is that the strikes have
pot been more numerous. i
l - In the case of the coal miners
there was dissatisfaction over a
wage award. In the case of ship
yards t workers the 26,000 youths
who struck demanded exemption
from being drafted to go into the
mines. This was ended when Ern

manded the men return to work.
A labor leader himself he has
been exceedingly strict in enforc

In spite of Britain's stronger
law and greater urgency for war

in the United States. Measured in

saying they "heartily approve of

and company in insisting upon the
maintenance and protection of the
lawful rights of the company"
and expressing "full confidence
in the management under the

rapid-fire order in the ease
rooted in Avery's refusal to ac
cede to orders from the war la

ney General Biddle replied that
the president and the WLB had

Avery told the shareholders the
