Growth of Trades Unionlsm

Starting from a mere handful of oppressed workers, the trade union movement has grown toboaworld- wide force, exercising its influence for good in practically every in- dustrial country of the world. Amongst white, black and yellow its efforts are being exerted ioraise the standard of living of the masses and free them from the thraldom of industrial tyranny wherever and in whatever form it exists. In its de- velopmcnt the trade union move- merit has successfully overcome

Lessening thehazards of life of the workers and mitigation oi the suffering of the victims and their dependents demands the closest co- operation between workers and em- ployers to overcome.

These are only a few of the equal- ly important tasks still ahead. Con- stantly changing conditions will, in addition, bring new problems, and it is in a full realization of this that workers everywhere must re- new theirdetermiuation to streng- then their forces and thus bereudy, ut all times, to effectively dealwlth

Each year since then workers’ re- presentatives were actively particl- pated along with those of employers and governments in the annual con- ferences of this body. This has been the means of lnagurating a world movement for the acceptance of a number of Labor's ideals which have formed the basis of a number of conventions and recommenda- tions adopted by the International Labor Organization.

Many of these have been incor- porated in the laws of the respective countries. and a number of others taken as the basis of the social and industrial laws of the newer coun- tries, such as Ireland, Czecho Slo- vakia, etc. which arose out of Treaty settlements.

It is also provided that an aircraft shall not fly over any city or town except at such altitude as will enable the aircraft to land outside the city or town if it be- comes disabled. It is now claimed that these restrictions are not suf- ficient.
