The executive committee submitted a scheme dealing with iabour rcpresentation •T. hospital boards and public bodies. It was proposed to ask the other trade unions to join in the scheme. An appeal for support on behalf of the Swansea Hospital was referred to the lodge.-g. Owing to the depression in trade it was decided to make a levy for the men who are out of work and the district also voted < £ 500 to alleviate some of the distress. Mr. Wm. Jenkins, the agent, submitted ft report upon his inteiview with the Goal Controller in regard to the depression in the coal trade, and said he believed that the Coal and Shipping ControUera were not giving equal treatment in the matter of tonnage. Conclusive evi- dence. he said had been brought forward that better treatment was j -iven to Cardiff and Newport than to Ow w<wtern oorts. Port Talbot and Swansea doel?. with the vert lateet equipment aiill, loading facilities, were equally capable as other places in dealing with the rftpiditv of shipping. Yet they had 50 per cent, less tonnage last quarter than in the corres- ponding quarter last year. and it was time that steps should be taken to compel the authorities to give equal treatment to all pcrts. A large number of men had been drawn out of several pits, and the employers said that it was due to the refusal of the Coal Controller to recognise them, and therefore they were compelled to close down the pits or work one or two days a week with a few men. It was said, added Mr. Jenkins, that steps were taken to im- mediately equalise the trade.
