Ffeil A1/82. - [--], 5 Marlborough Road, Richmond Hill, Surrey,

Encloses a press cutting comprising a letter 'from the President of the Christian Socialists in Belgium'. The letter in the cutting expresses an interest in the scheme for the increase in wages and warns of the serious consequences of the over-production of coal. It is essential to regulate production and to establish selling prices beneficial to capital and labour. Has written two articles based on these ideas and would be pleased to examine recipient's scheme. The letter A1/82 notes that such a scheme requires the agreement of the men, but it has attracted a favourable response from Continental coalowners and Conservatives. D. A. Thomas may wish to become acquainted with the details of the scheme. Writer will gladly forward further details.
