National Industry in England By WILL IRWINX in OAKLAND 11 ,IoI). "Within a few months the mines of England will be nationalized; a short time later the railroads will also be taken over by the nation; be fore long the great shipping indus try of England will follow." This was the conclusion reached by Will Irwin, the war correspondent, in a lecture on "Industrial ('ondi tions in England, France and Bel gium," given last Sunday night for the People's Institute of San Fran cisco. at Eagles' Hall in that city. The nationalization is Lloyd ('Georg's clever counter-move, lie aid, to block the workers' demaund for na tionalization and the joint control of industry by working ien and em ployers. 'England is the mitost in' restilng laboratory for social study in Eu-, rope." he said. "'England p:s.itive.l ' is going throughl a almazing (.'ii'. The English are dreadfully slov i imagination and they are instinetive-t ly conservative not in politi"s alone, Ibut in the clinging to old thing.;. Ialt when they learn what the right thing; really is, they will go further. I It - lieve, and sacrifice mi 're for it titllit any other people. "Before the war English Ilaoe and capital had got into a very vieitltw circle that it seemed itipo.sll l,' for labor to break out of.

Suddenly tlh strikes fell to pieces. The reason for -that was that they were simply spn'i taleous strikes. There was 1no or ganiaztion at all, anld strikes need o; ganization as much as an arm.y.
