Some may doubt the wisdom of calling the Labour Clauses of the Peace Treaty by a name whichj2 Si recalls the Great Charter of seven hundred years ago; an endeavour is significance3 here made to estimate the of these clauses, examine the principles on which theyto are based, and at the same time to indicate the dangers attached to a too ruthless application of some of them. The problems of to-day can be solved only by inter- national action. Although chief attention is paid to conditions in Great Britain, it has been found necessary to examine also conditions in other countries. India where the strike spirit has manifested itself even among golf-caddies, and Japan where the workers pursue a ca' canny policy because strikes are illegal, are calling out for the solutions which we ourselves so much^ at ~ require.
