LONDON, Ot. 22. n. p.) Con
fronted by Industrial revolution the
government today Introduced In par
liament an emergency bill glvinic It
warttlme power, with the. rlKht to line
military forces for any purpose. The
bill was drafted to meet a threatened
rfeerai strike In aupport of the British
miners and gives the government pow
er to ration and control all resources.
The government's move followed an.
nouncement of a call for a general
meeting of the trades union congress
to consider what should be done to
secure settlement of the coal miner's
demands. Taken In- connection with
the announcement of transport work
ers that failure to Immediately resume
negotiations with the miners will
align the government annalist the
working clauses, the call Is accepted
as a veiled threat that all Hritlsh la
bor will consider Joining the miners.
Oneral Mrlkn lxinw
The coal miners continue to strike
today throwing a thousand more work
erg out of employment. Union and
government representatives admitted
the gravity of the situation. It Is

ment (ears It wi'J be"fhipilble to mc
the terms of railway, and transport
workers In an effort to get them to
cancel their strike arraneements.
The government, In addition to the
emergency legislation Is proceud.i.
with other plans for combatilng the
strike. All measures adopted during
the last railway strike are in effect
Hallway schedules are being cut and
supplies and rations hastened to dis
tribution centers. The emergency bill,
permitting .the government id use
troops for any purpose, Is taking to
mean that If necessary trains and ships
will be operated -by soldiers. They
may even be used In the mines. Lead
era of the miners and some leaders
among transport and railway workers
ere frank In saying that their purpose
Is overturning parliamentary govern
ment. That this revolutionary Intent
exists Is apparently taken for granted
by authorities In preparing to use tho
military "for any purpose."

said In conclusion.
