PROSPECTS IN CHINA FOR BRITISH TRADE It will be one if not the Greatest of Her Overseas Markets says Writer. Sp USS TALE SOME SERIOUS OBSTACLES Germany and the States are Making a Great Bid for Trade. The China of tomorrow will be one of the greatest, if not the greatest, of British overseas markets, says Mr. Stafiord Ransome (author of Japan in Transition ), the orgun of the Royal Colonial In- stitute. This fact has long since been realized by our foreign competitors, In anticipation of favors to come, the United States government, who had asked an exorbitant war indem- nity from China, waived it, We, om the other hand, who had claimed un indemnity reasonable amount, enforced it German engineering firms are spend- img 100,000 on engincering schools in China, conducted in the German language, to be used as trade nur- serics for the Vaterland. British phi- lanthropists propose to spend 250,- (00 on q university in China for giv- tng ax Oxiord education to the Chin- conducted in the Chinese lan- guage, which can bring no beneficial results to British interests. The govermnents, the banks, the shipping companies nf Germany, the United States, France and Belgium, Jeave no stone unturned to forward the, interests of their respective man ufatturers at home und their com- patriots resident im China. The tega- tions of those countries are constant- ly using their political influence to obtain orders for their own poople end lending their full weight to the financial groups who are endeavoring to obtain concessions and contracts from China. The British government confines it- self to publishing up-todate, incom- plete and often misleading reports concerning matters which are dead and gone by the time they reach the public. They make no endeavor to forward trade interests im any way, either collectively or in the case of the individual. The British Benker, while as anxious as his competitors in other countries to lend money to China, makes no stipulation as they do to the effect that a portion of the money so lent shall be spent in com tracts placed with manufacturers in his own country, and he refuses paint- blank to regard a properly authenti- fated contract as a negotiable asset. Thns at che present day we are fac- ed with the anomaly of our tankers drawing upon the deposits of British. of lending money to Chim to be spent on German machinery. These are a lew of the more serious obsta- cled which stand in the wap of Great Britain's trade and prestige in the China of tomorrow. LACROSSE. Toronto, Ont., Feb, 22. Con.

Meeting Resolution. w Complain that Operator Them. Lethbridge, Feb. 21. Were the of- fictals of the executive of District 18, UL M.W. of A. not vigilant enough in protecting the interests of the miners when negotiating the strike settle- ment in November last? Have they left themselves open to the censure of the convention now assembled to deal with the affairs of the district, and WII a vote of censure be passed upon them before the convention disperses? These are questions which are troubling the minds of the officials as Well as the delegates, and there appears to be a warm time ahead before the session ends. Discrimination against the cialg-of -the union, was the key of the discussion in conventio: this : morning, That the secreturies of the locals are being discriminated against by the mine operators seem to be well founded, Secretary after secre- tary rose this morning and told of the troubles they had encountered since the resumption of work in get- tng work for themselves. They are blacklisted. They are not allowed to earn thelr bread and butter as the average miner is doing. As result it is very hard to get the proper men to take up the duties of the secretary of a local union, for he is at once placed in a very pre- carious position. Unless the local is able to pay him he finds that he is without work, not wanted, and there- fore forced to seek employment in another camp, in which case he takes very Rood-tire.that he does not play a leading part in the affairs of the union at that point. What effect is this state of affairs having on the unfon throughout the istrict? That question is-being very thoroughly discussed, and the only answer so far adduced is that the union is becoming disorganized. The men are afraid to show their alliance to the union in an open manner, and there Is, therefore, a tendency to lose the enthusiasm which must stand be- hind the officers, and to drift away ftom organized labor. In camps where the local union Is strong enough to pay a salary to the secretary the trouble isnot so evi- dent, He is able to hold the men to- gether, but even then he has his trou- bles, Evans of Lille, paid secre- tary, said this morning that he was not given permission to go into the mine and measure coal for the men of the unfon, Only as a member of the pit committee can he do this, and jthat is not satisfactory. He sald also that he was openly discriminated against by the mine owners. Although ithe mining law says that the secre- tary shall bo allowed to enter the the union, and for purposes of check- ing up coal mined, the operators, it is said, refuse to allow this privilege. But t 1 in the smaller locals, too small to afford a paid secretary, that the trouble arises.-No miner, can af- ford to accept the position gratuit- ously as he is at once blacklisted, his services being no longer required by the owner of the mine. It is in these camps that the work s becoming dis- organized. The resolution committee, therefore brought in a resolution at this morn- ing s session asking that some ar- rangements be made whereby several of the smaller camps be banded to- gether with one secretary in charge, and that the whole district be taxed to pay these secretaries. This resolution, however, while it would overcome the difficulty if work- able, it 1s said to be tmpracticable, any local must have been promoted from the position of check committee in the mine in which he was working. liber Miners Wont Strike in Sympathy. With British Workers mine at any time in the interests of an iscussion at Lethbridge as Defeated Secretaries 8 are Discriminating against ly one mine to measure coal. His usefulness as a secretary would there- fore be confined to one local in that particular matter. The matter was still under discussion until adjourn- ment at noon, It was thought to be an impracticable solution, however, and will not likely be acted upon at this time. There s however a likithood that a resolution will be passed asking that the mining regulations be amended to allow for such a resolution to be put into effect, To provide against further discrim- ination under future agreements a re- solution was brought down to the ef- fect that no working agreement wit henceforth be -slened which does not contain a clause stipulating that all former employees of any coal com- pany shall be given their former po- sitions on the resumption of work un- der the new agreement No more verbal agreements go with us, sald one delegate hotly. We have had effough verbal prom- ises from the mine owners, which they do not keep, and which they never Intendedto keep. The resolution as brought in origin- ally, was divided into two parts. The second part of the resolution moves 8 vote of censure. It was stated re- peatedly while speaking to the reso- lution that the officials had told the men While the district vote was being taken on the new agreement last No- vember that there would be no dis- crimination*when work was resumed, and that on that understanding many of the men had voted to retarn to work who wauld otherwise have voted against it. The meh say they have been misied; hence the vote of cen- sure, Michel local was the Instiga- tor of the resolution, but they were warmly supported by delegates from other camps. The resolution was tabled, and will be acted on later in the-convention, when there is expect- 2d to be some very bitter discussion. The only other resolution brought in by the committee this morning hich was of great importance, was that in future all grievances, resola- tions and suggestions, shall be for- warded by the locals to the district secretary at least two months before the date of the annual convention, and that these shall be embodied in the call to the convention. However, by an amendment to the resolution, any matter which come up in the interim will be allowed to be brought before the convention in the regular course of business. The resoFition committee have great many matters to be dealt with, id it will likely be tomorrow before the reports of any of the others of the standing committees can be heard. A lively discussion took place on resolution read from the Michel local urging the convention to agree to general strike on April ist as a pro- test against the manner in which the British miners are being treated at present. Each delegate appeared to have a different opinion and it seemed as If discussion would never end. A ballot was finally taken amid great excitement. It resulted by a yote of 38 for and 29 against to abide by whatever action the International amendment to the startling resolution.
