[Labour Party Conference]

The Labour Conference at Manchester spent a busy time dealing with questions of vital importance to the working class. They passed resolutions in favour of the following :

Increased tax on unearned incomes.
High taxation of luxuries.
Direct taxation of land values.
Nationalisation of the banking system.

There were, of course, other resslutions that show with what unerring instinct these Labour statesmen place their fingers on the sore and galling spots of working-class existence. But the high water mark of their genius was reached in their subtle chiding of neutrals for not “joining in” by calling for a conference of “Allied Labour only” ! Now, S.L.P. of A.!
