Report on Labor Situation in England

In regard to the labor situation in England, it is reported that the fight of labor against the Prime Minister, that is now being organized, may be very far reaching in its effects. That the Government is making strenuous efforts by sending speakers throughout the country to counteract the pacifist agitation that has sprung up in England, and that if Henderson's fight against the Prime Minister comes to a head during the war there will certainly be interesting developments. It is reported that if Henderson were to be the next Prime Minister he would be in favor of Peace. It is reported that he stated that he is of the opinion that Peace could be secured at the present time by negotiation, which would be just as advantageous to the Allies as a peace which could be secured two years from now, after half a million more lives had been sacrificed and another million dollars expended. It is stated that Henderson is quite interested in Samuel Gompers and has considerable admiration for him. The report suggests that it would be of unquestionable advantage to the Allied cause to have Mr. Gompers go to England, and that an interview could be arranged without its becoming public, unless it was thought an advantage to have it known.
