STRIKE 081611 j Sinister Influences at Work." "SECRET CODES" SAYS WIR. THOMAS. We suggested yesterday, in our edi- torial notes, that behind th8 railway strike were influences 6eeking to under- mine the government of the country. Support to that view is given to-day by a correspondent in the "limes," who is declared to have been in close touch with the strike. Before leaving Newport yesterday, Mr. J. H. Thomas, M.P., stated to a press re- presentative :—"The younger men have been got hold 01. and sinister influences, even tho use 01 secret codes, have been at work." The correspondent in question, upon this matter says that it is now known that Mr. Thomas's principal work at the Newport meeting was to nail down various untruths which Iud been circu- lated by pacifists, whose names are well- known throughout the country and who visited certain rooms at Xewport and other railway centres. It is also stated that at the Strike Committee certain or the members were sending and receiving telegrams in code to iind from well-known j pacbists, and that only a few of the mem- here vfere aware of what was in progress. >QUIRY TO BE HELD. He also 115Serts that it has already been i decided to hold a full inquiry into the causes which led up to the strike, and particularly- into the alleged statements of certain individuals who are well known as pacifists and conscientious objectors Already tie" re is a deep feeling of chagrin among a large section of At nlln. who teel that they have been "had," | as one of them put it. The whoio cam- paign j6 now as plain as a pikestaff, This was engineered months ago. j A Cardiff journal says that it is by this time certain that the strike haà very little to do with th6 wages'award. It did not ansfj directly out of ctj^satis- j f action with the award, bat was preclpi- tated by a small group of inu.ndiaries who seized the occasion for an experi- ment in Bolshevism. MR. THOMAS'S RESIGNATION. Mr. J. H. Thomas, M.P., who was yes- terday in a state of complete exhaustion, handed to the Ex?utive Committee of the L nion, which was then sittir,'9,6 letter of r?-ign?tion, and immecdat?ly left for his home. I Mr. Thomas, in his letter, said that. was responsible for the recent strike—a strike as wicked as it was dangerous-wele people whose policy and methods must not only be challenged but must be iought, otherwise they would soon reach a stage in this country which was similar to that through which l Russia was now passing." The Executive Committee passed the following resolutionThat having con- sidered the letter from the general sec- retary tendering his resignation, this Executive Committee regret the circum- stances which have led to this action. We hereby express implicit faith and confidence in him, decline to accept his j resignation, and ask him to rcconsider I' the position when his physical condition has improved." THE RAILWAYMEN'S SECRETARIES. A Labour correspondent of the "Morn- in Fost'? :ays to-day: Mr. Thomas's re- signation is not the nr6t r?ignation of a G'nQral Secretary -?t a raUwayTn<n'e &uciety b?caus? the men would not fol- j low him. Mr. Richard Bell, '?h?B General Secretary of the Amalgamated Society of Railway Servants, as it was then called, resigned under almost simi- lar circumstances. The case of Mr. Har- bord, a former secretary, will also be re- called, and Mr. Thomas's immediate pre- decessor, the late* Mr. Williams was obviously very uncomfortable before he resigned. A LLANDILO RESOLUTION, j -? I At a special meeting of iJanauo UJli- j v aymen the following resolution was un- j animously passedThat ow ing to the I present state of the country, in connec- tiün with tho war, rather than risk to hinder or prolong the war by rny action in going on strike at the presc-xit juncture, we abide by the settlement made by our representatives in the last award, dated t' August

A Strange Fact, I A b o u t Indigestion A strange fact about indigestion with which comparatively few people are ic quainted. is that Jline times out of ten pain in the stomach aiter eating is due to j t'ùoo fermentation and acidity, which, as any doctor or chemist can tell you, is i almost instantly relieved by taking half a teaspoonful of pure Bisurated Magnesia (powder form) ia a little water imme- j diately after eating or wb?n?vpr pain is ?lt. Pure Bisuratcd Magnesia is obtain- able of chemists everywhere at as. per bottle, containing sufficient for about six weeks' treatment, and if everyone would adopt this simple plan, indigestion, dyõ-j pepsia, sour stomach, gas, and flatulence would .soon be unknown. j

MOND NICKEL CO. LTD. cd-O ADJOURNED SHAREHOLDERS' ItiEtiliiS The adjourned fourth ordinary general meeting of the shareholders of the Mond Nickel Company, Limited, was held yesterday at the offices, ;19, Victoria- street, London, S.W.. Mr. Robert Mond, J.P., presiding. The Chairman, in moving the adoption of the report and accounts, congratulated the shareholders on the ealisfactory re- sults obtained by last year's trading. If the company's developments had not been hindered by the war, the profits might have been considerably improved, assum- ing that they had been able to place their products at pre-war prices. lie would like to emphasise the fact that they were essentially a mining, smelting, and rdin- ing company. The company possessed good mines, and was one of the pioneers in developing the mineral resources of the British Lmpir. Dealing with the balance-^heet. the chairman said that the balance to; the credit of the profit and loss account was which was an increase of over last year. The available balance was £ 6^6,851, as com- pared with £ 410,1% last vear. The direc- tors proposed to deal with that lllliount ao followsInterim half-year ly dividend j on the Preference capital at 7 per cent, per annum paid on February 5, ISIS, sub- ject to deduction of income-tax, dividend paid July 30, 191S. on the Pre- ference capital at 7 per cent, per annum, subject to deduction of income-tax, £31.000; interim dividend on the Ordinary capital at 1: per share paid on February 5. 191b. subject to deduction of income- il-ix, tii,Oi'o-); and dividend paid on July 20, 1019, on the Ordinary capital at per chare, free of income-tax, The directors funh('r proposed to place £ 250,000 to reserve account, and to carry forward, including provision for cart of war taxation, f:Jj,:2.1J. The use of nickel in its various forms and of copper sulphate for t.h £ preserva- tion of îond plants were of the utmost value for the maintenance of our country. He desired to lay stress on the advantages accruing to this country of an important refinery of Canadian-ores situated in this country. Not cl--d C-tnl"loy British labour, but by having to carry a large otoek of raw and intermediate pro- ducts to ensure uninterrupted work in their wcrkf, here, they provided a large teserv* of these e-tveutial materials which I would safeguard thip country against any temporary interyiption of the regular I' supply from any eau' whatsoever. As regarded agriculture, the more intensive cultivation of the soil, which had made I>w.ch rapid and satisfactory progress dur- ing the war, had brought to greater pro- minence the prevalence of plant diseases. The support which a cultivator had re- ceived from the State or public autho- rities in this country had been iamentabiy inadequate when compared with what had been done abroad, but he was very pleased to be able to state that the Food Production Department, with admirable energy, had seriously undertaken the in etruction of the cultivators in the best known methods of prevention of plant diseases, and as their copper sulphate provided the most potent means they had of protecting the crops, they were making every effort in their power tc instruct the ueers and to facilitate their obtaining adequate supplies. During the past year they had been fres trom any serious labour trouble, and the ~utisfectory result, had been attained of maintaining the production at almost the highest capacity of the existing plant, !<.tL. in this country and in Canada. They htul come to terms with their workmen sincerely hoped that their experience iu meeting labour in council would result in a fitiJt more complete understanding, that tho many very complicated after- tl¡'I'Ç"ar problems would become easier to ?oJve. He wirhod to utter a word of warning ?a?nst the continued and increasing teD-I J?rcy on the part of Government autho- titif? t? interfere with the managea?'?t of industrial coccerns. and to -,put restric- tions upon a reasonable treedem of trade, llany businesses had no doubt sprung up Juring the war whose prosperity was en- tirely due to the extraordinary demands and conditions created by the war. This oertamly could not be said of thi-s com- pany, the success of which had been I assured before the war. He would further say without hesita- tion that the progress during the past four years would have been much mora rapid were it net for the immen-e diffi- culties that had coii."routod them on all sides by reason of Government testric- tion. They knew that before the war Germany and Austria had a monopoly of niany metallic industries, although they were ubder the enormous disadvantage oi having to depend upon the raw material from other countries, particu- larly the British Empire. Some of those industries at any rate could be estab- lished and successfully carried on here. In order to do so they should get ready now. The report was adopted and the usual formal business was transacted.

CINEMAS AND EPIDEMICS. New Clause of Genera! Interest. At Pontardav;e Council, on Thursday, a letter was read from the clerk to the County Council sug-ccstirg that a clause be inserted in the agreements with oinema pro- t'nptors to the effect that in case of an epidemic children ur,cl.er 1<1 should not be -allowed to patronise the cinemas daring that period. The Chairman (Mr. Gibbon) Eail it was only right that such a clause should be in. serted, It wa,s useless closing schools to prevent infection and leave the children to congregate in the cinemas. Mr. H. J. Powell: They II loee their best customers- b o. cint3ma p'?'4,P" i s- It was decided to n?k the cinema proprie- tors to accede to the inclusion of the claase.
