THE .RAILWAYMEH1 ——-0-
THE RAILWAYMEH 1 —— 0- WELSH WORKERS ACCEPT THE BONUS OF 5/- 1" TT" 1 ooutii waxes rail nay men nave accepted the new agrcemen t granting them an additional war bonus of 5s. The following resolution was passed at a meeting of the South Wales and Monmouthshire District Council of the National Union of Kailway- men held at Cardiff on Sunday:— That, having heard the reports of our representatives, of the executive commit- tee, and the special general meeting on the agreement accepted in response to our claim of an advance of 10s. per week in wages, this conference of the South Wales and Monmouthshire branches expresses its strong protest that such unpalatable teirms should be forced upon its by the weak and vacillating policy adopted by the special general meeting. The term's of the agreement are utterly inadequate to meet the needs of this dis- trict, and still leave us at the moucy of the food robbers, to be further exploited in the future, with no guarantee of protection from the Government. We, therefore, decide to take the earliest possible steps to have the special claims of the railwaymen in South Wales reconsidered, and as food prices rise to ma ke fresh demands for increased pay. Furthermore, that we point to the rail- way shopmen that the action of the rail- way companies in these negotiations clearly demonstrates that their only hope for the future lies in their becoming mem- bers of the National Union of Railway- men. We further decide thai, as our ideals cannot be carried out in a national move- ment, the time is now ripe to provide for a South Wales movement, believing that therein lies our saltation." Mr. T. C. Morris, the South Wales repre- sentative on the National Union of Iiail- waymen's Executive Committee, in asking the men to accept the settlement for an additional 5- war bonus, said he knew the temper of the men in South Wales, and any credit for the settlement should be given to the men of South Wales. When they considered that the first offer of the companies was 2s., having regard to all factors, an increase of 150 per cent. on the original offer proved the success of the ".squeezing" methods adopted by South Wales. A great point in the new agreement was that Clause 5 of the first agreement, preventing them from negotiating further during the war for increased wages, had been eliminated. There was also a pro- posal of a sliding-scale in the event of food prices rising. This was now I)eiin.(r con- sidered by the railway companies and by the N.U.R. lie regretted that the shop- men had Veen excluded irom the ?ree- ment, but they were up against the factor of more unions ?han unity. There was no hope for the railv-a.nnen' of this country until they wer<? a 1mited body. (Applause). AN ACCUSATION DENIED. I Mr. E. Charles, as chairman of the South Wales find Monmouthshire District Council, said he wished to deny tho accusations that had been made by thoughtless people that the agitation for an increase of wages had been prompted by an nn-patriotic spirit. It had been said that the railwaymen in South Wales had no regard for the !ivcs of the men in the trenches and c.n the sea. His reply to that foul accusation was that it was a lie. (Loud applause.) In no part of the country was there more regard for the lives and ibt(,rests of the men in the trenches than in South Wales, and South Wales had shown it. Tf drastic action.had been taken bv the railwaymen the responsibilitv for it would have laid at the doors of the friends of the food robbers -,ylio ;i.t in the Cabinet and in the Government—(cheers) —the food robbers who were piling up huge fortunes, not only at the expense of the railwaymen and other workmen in the community, but at the expense of the wives and children of their soldiers and sailors. (Hear, hear.) As far as a South Wales movement was concerned, the time had come when, rtwing to the special cir- cumstances of the district:, they should de- mand special rates of pay for South Wales. The railway companies themselves had suggested a sliding scale—in these present negotiations mark you-^to differentiate be- tween rates of pay in industrial and country districts. Mr. Charles then sub- mitted tho resolution quoted a bove. Mr. Dan Thomas appealed to the shop- men to throw m their lo! with the railway- men by an amalgamation of their unions. The resolution was declared carried, only about half a dozen voting against; it out of several hundred delegates, who afterwards returned to their various branches to report the result of the con- ference. SWANSEA'S DECISION. A mass meeting of railwavmen at the Working Men's Club, Swansea, on Sunday evening decided to accept the decision of the Cardiff meeting, but expressed dissatis- faction at the fact; that shop men and women workers were ignored. The meeting decided to support them in their demand for increased waers.
