BEER ISSUE AGAIN REVIVED Dock Workers Complain of the QualIity of Beverage and Shortage of Supply?Unions Strong and Well Organized. London.?The industrial unrest prevalent throughout the country Is causing serious anxiety, not only to large employers of labor, but even to conservative labor leaders. The labor i leaders taking this attitude include J. II. Thomas, general secretary of the Kailwayiuen's union, who warned a meeting of postal workers who were demanding a 42-hour week, more holidays and curtailment of night work, that "the industrial and economic po?.i .if tMc nnnnfrv e"ivf?s OUUSe for OltM'll VI 11MS." 0- - - - _ alarm." : ' ; v Demand Shorter Hours. The postal workers are only one of many trade unions which are demand-. ing shorter hours with the present or bet.er pay. Up to this time the demands of the miners have been emj bodied in the resolutions of the SouthI port Miners' Federation, who demanded that the governmeLt demobilize all miners in the army and that wsgeis ' other than war wages be advanced 30 per cent. ; The attitude of the miners has j caused the most comment, as coal and I its price more directly affect the pul>11c. It is estimated that to grant a 30 j per cent increase in wages would send the price of coal up at least a dollar a 1 tun. In addition to the miners, the shipbuilders on the Clyde and in other centers axe agitating for a 40-hour' week, with daily wages of ?1.

The.v are also much agitated over the shortage of beer and the poor quality of that beverage, and during the week there lias been much slacking, particularly at Liverpool, from tlu? cause. There has been a temporary shortage of beer at some shipping points due to the strike of brewery employees, who also complain of long hour*. All these unions are strong numerically and well organized, and from the tone of speeches at their meetings the members apparently :ire prepared to go to extremes in their efforts to Have conditions 01 laoor uuproveu along the lilies laid down in their resolutions.
